Put my brother in the meadow
lady in the pine
rooster crows, heaven knows
aint no use cryin’
aye! aye! hear the cry
all those days are done
ridin’ on to glory
in the saddle of the sun
gonna give my girl a pony
set her up to ride
through this world of trouble
to the other side
aye! aye! hear the cry
all rolls into one
ridin’ on to glory
in the saddle of the sun
lyin’ in a starry night
wonderin’ how the time keeps goin’ on & on
lyin’ in a starry night
dreamin’ of the time when i’ll be goin’ home
hand in hand with my sweet lady walkin’ . . .
gonna shake these old chains off me
shake ‘em to the floor
i can’t stand to hear ‘em rattle
anymore
aye! aye! hear the cry
all those days are done
ridin’ on to glory
in the saddle of the sun
aye! aye! hear the cry
better days to come
ridin’ on to glory
in the saddle of the sun
lyin’ in a starry night
wonderin’ how the time keeps goin’ on & on
lyin’ in a starry night
dreamin’ of the time when i’ll be goin’ . .
goin’ . . goin’ . . goin’ . .
