Cowboy's Dream

(альбом: Songs Of The West - 1961)

Last night as I laid on the prairie
And looked at the stars in the sky
I wondered if ever a cowboy
Would come to that sweet by and by

Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on roll on
Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on

The road to that bright happy region
Is a dim narrow trail so they say
But the broad one that leads to prediction
Is posted and blazed all the way

Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on roll on
Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on

I wonder if ever a cowboy
Stood ready for that great judgement day
And could say to the boss of the riders
I'm ready come drive me away

Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on roll on
Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on

But they tell of another big owner
Who's not overstocked, so they say
But who always makes room for the sinners
Who drift from the straight narrow way

Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on roll on
Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on

But the ship to that bright mystic region
Over there in green pastures do lie
And be led by the crystal still waters
To that home in the sweet by and by

Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on roll on
Roll on roll on
Roll on little dogies roll on
