One More Ride

[Verse 1]
How I long for the trip, I don't need no grip, I'm takin' 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 callin'
There's a man can know where the Santa Fe goes when she gets under steam
And the big loud bell there's a fond farewell, hear her whistle scream
She's bound to go where there ain't no snow a fallin'
One more ride

[Yodeling]

[Verse 2]
I'll miss the gloom of the pale white moon that seemed to know my name
And the tumbleweeds where the prairie don't feed, I miss them just the same
They're all a part of a song in my heart I'm singin'
I recall the tune that I sang to the moon, it seemed to make him 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

[Yodeling]

[Verse 3]
As the years go by I wonder why I longed to leave my home
And hit the trail of the iron rail away out there alone
But my heart would sigh till I know that I am leavin'
If I don't come back, there's a one way track way down in Mexico
You'll find me there or any old where that a tumbleweed will grow
So it's goodbye now you'll never know how I'm grievin'
One more ride

[Yodeling]
