[00:05.35]There is a young cowboy he lives on the range
[00:11.58]His horse and his cattle are his only companions
[00:17.64]He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons
[00:22.72]Waiting for summer his pastures to change
[00:31.84]And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
[00:36.73]Thinking about women and glasses of beer
[00:41.77]And closing his eyes as the doggies retire
[00:46.73]He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
[00:51.80]As if maybe someone could hear
[00:59.80]Goodnight you moonlight ladies
[01:04.90]Rockabye sweet baby James
[01:09.96]Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
[01:14.81]Won't you let me go down in my dreams
[01:19.83]And rockabye sweet baby James
[01:24.92]Now the first of December was covered with snow
[01:31.44]And so was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
[01:37.59]Lord the Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
[01:42.71]With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
[01:51.52]There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
[01:56.80]A song that they sing when they take to the sea
[02:01.95]A song that they sing of their home in the sky
[02:06.71]Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
[02:12.29]But singing works just fine for me
[02:19.52]So goodnight you moonlight ladies
[02:24.87]Rockabye sweet baby James
[02:29.80]Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
[02:34.79]Won't you let me go down in my dreams
[02:39.81]And rockabye sweet baby James
