๐ Lyrics
It's a long way
From Salt Lake to Denver
Bumming on the D&RG
Moonlight shines on the river below
Lights up the rocks and the trees
You follow the white Colorado
Until it narrows down to a stream
Train whistle blowing a slow lullaby
Rolling along in a dream
So rock me to sleep in your bosom
Hold me close to your breast
But don't leave me alone on these cold city streets
But find me a track headed west
I'm tired of your big operators
And I'm tired of your music machine
I'm tired of playing for nickels and dimes
These times are always so lean
'Cause it's a long way from no place to somewhere
Bumming all my good years away
Tonight I'm feeling so restless and cold
Maybe I'll find it someday
Someday
From Salt Lake to Denver
Bumming on the D&RG
Moonlight shines on the river below
Lights up the rocks and the trees
You follow the white Colorado
Until it narrows down to a stream
Train whistle blowing a slow lullaby
Rolling along in a dream
So rock me to sleep in your bosom
Hold me close to your breast
But don't leave me alone on these cold city streets
But find me a track headed west
I'm tired of your big operators
And I'm tired of your music machine
I'm tired of playing for nickels and dimes
These times are always so lean
'Cause it's a long way from no place to somewhere
Bumming all my good years away
Tonight I'm feeling so restless and cold
Maybe I'll find it someday
Someday
