Johnny Cash - Girl from the Canyon lyrics

The girl from the canyon smiled a
Smile that brought me home
As sick and bleeding as I was
She took me on her own
Brought me to the canyon where the
Sun poured down like rain
Her smiling eyes and the mountain
Light I thought myself insane
These hills have seen me running till
My horse could hardly stand
Hiding by day in the mountains moving
With the moon on the land
I'm hoping to find my freedom in
A world that wants me dead
The girl from the canyon took
And healed my wounds instead

The girl from the canyon she don't
Need to know what I done
She laughed with me in the moonlight
Till the morning brought the sun
The girl from the canyon the girl from
The canyon she was the only one

An outlaw is a hunted one with
A price upon his head
We're all outlaws in a way
That is what she said
And so I left the canyon when
I was strong enough to ride
The girl from the canyon she
Was riding by my side

The girl from the canyon she don't
Need to know what I done
She was the only one
