Johnny Cash - One More Ride lyrics
[Johnny Cash - One More Ride lyrics]
I long for the trip don't need no
Grip I'm taking one more ride
Way out there in the prairie air
I guess it's in my hide
Oh the clickety clack of the
Railroad track is calling
If a man could know where the Santa
Fe goes when she gets under steam
And the big loud bell that bongs
Farewell to hear her whistle scream
She's bound to go where there
Ain't no snow a falling
One more ride
I miss the gloom of the prairie moon
That seemed to know my name
And the tumbleweed where the prairie dog feed
I miss them just the same
They're all a part of a
Song of heart I'm saying
I recall the tune that I sang to the
Moon and it seemed to make it smile
And I rode away at the close of
Day and I stayed so long awhile
But I long to be where the memory is ringing
As the years go by I wonder why
I longed to leave my home
And to hit the trail of the
Iron rail away out there alone
But my heart would sigh till I
Know that I am leaving
If I don't come back on a one
Way track way down from Mexico
You could find me there or any old
Where that a tumbleweed will grow
It's a goodbye now you'll never
Know how I'm grieving
Grip I'm taking one more ride
Way out there in the prairie air
I guess it's in my hide
Oh the clickety clack of the
Railroad track is calling
If a man could know where the Santa
Fe goes when she gets under steam
And the big loud bell that bongs
Farewell to hear her whistle scream
She's bound to go where there
Ain't no snow a falling
One more ride
I miss the gloom of the prairie moon
That seemed to know my name
And the tumbleweed where the prairie dog feed
I miss them just the same
They're all a part of a
Song of heart I'm saying
I recall the tune that I sang to the
Moon and it seemed to make it smile
And I rode away at the close of
Day and I stayed so long awhile
But I long to be where the memory is ringing
As the years go by I wonder why
I longed to leave my home
And to hit the trail of the
Iron rail away out there alone
But my heart would sigh till I
Know that I am leaving
If I don't come back on a one
Way track way down from Mexico
You could find me there or any old
Where that a tumbleweed will grow
It's a goodbye now you'll never
Know how I'm grieving
