lyrics

I’m a long way from Jamestown, South Carolina
I hear that low-country song fade with the wind
Pushing forward I hear the sounds of the Mississippi
When I flow down I feel those black swamps again.

I’ll ride towards the setting sun
Dreaming of how the West was won
With my perseverance sitting by my side
Texas heat and mountain snow
Don’t try to stop me when I go
There ain’t no way you’ll ever take this cowboy’s pride.

I might go up north to a ranch in Colorado
I’d like breathe in that Rocky Mountain air
And they say that there’s gold in El Dorado
And I pray no one finds me there

Now my family has settled around New Orleans
Maybe I’ll take a train to see them there
And I usually prefer to see the country
But maybe it’ll be fun in a city without care.
