George Strait - I Can Still Make Cheyenne lyrics
[George Strait - I Can Still Make Cheyenne lyrics]
Her telephone rang 'bout a quarter to nine
She heard his voice on the
Other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst in
The back of her mind
He said
"It's cold out here and I'm all alone
I didn't make the short go
Again and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But, I'll be home soon and
Honey is there something wrong?"
She said, "Don't bother coming home
By the time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure
Ain't no rodeo man"
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But, it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
He left that phone dangling off the hook
Then slowly turned around and gave
It one last look then he just walked away
He aimed his truck toward that Wyoming line
With a little luck he could
Still get there in time
And in that Cheyenne wind he
Could still hear her say
She said, "Don't bother coming home
By the time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure
Ain't no rodeo man"
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this
There's so much about you that I'm gonna miss
But, it's alright baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
Gotta go now baby
If I hurry I can still make Cheyenne
She heard his voice on the
Other end of the line
She wondered what was wrong this time
She never knew what his calls might bring
With a cowboy like him it could be anything
And she always expected the worst in
The back of her mind
He said
"It's cold out here and I'm all alone
I didn't make the short go
Again and I'm coming home
I know I've been away too long
I never got a chance to write or call
And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all
But, I'll be home soon and
Honey is there something wrong?"
She said, "Don't bother coming home
By the time you get here I'll be long gone
There's somebody new and he sure
Ain't no rodeo man"
He said, "I'm sorry it's come down to this
