Song: One More Ride
A
I long for a trip, I don't need no grip,
I'm takin' one more ride
D
'Way out there in the prarie air
I guess it's in my hide
A E7
Oh, the clickety clack of the railroad track is callin'
A
If a man could know where the Santa Fe goes
when she gets under steam
D
and the big round bell that bongs farewell
Could hear her whistle scream
A E7 A
He's bound to go where there ain't no snow a-fallin'
E7 A D E7 A
One more ride, one more ride
I miss the gloom of the prarie moon
that seemed to know my name
and the tumbleweed where the prarie dog feed,
I miss them just the same
They're all a part of my song at heart I'm singin'
I recall a 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 ringin'
One more ride, one more ride
As the years go by, I wonder why
I long to leave my home
And I hit the trail of the iron rail
away out there alone
But my heart just sighed 'till I know that I am leavin'
If I don't come back on a one-way track
way down from Mexico
You can find me there or any old where
that a tumbleweed will grow
It's goodbye now, you'll never know how I'm grievin'
One more ride, one more ride
