The rocky mountains
Darling they're way out in the West
The rocky mountains
Darling they're way out in the West
Yes you know I hates to go and leave you sweetheart
But I know that's for the best
Of course I love you
But I can't stay here in your town
Of course I love you
But I can't stay here in your town
Yes you know I got my suitcase packed, baby
I ain't gonna leave till the sun goes down
The rocky mountains
Darlin, that's a mighty terrible dangerous place
The rocky mountains
It's a mighty terrible dangerous place
Yes you know they kept my baby there
And they put clay dirt in her face
The rocky mountains
That's the place I long to be
The rocky mountains
That's the place I long to be
And when I got to tell my baby
Please man, remember me
