Song Of Wyoming Lyrics - Chris Ledoux

I'm weary and tired I've done my day's ridin' 

Nighttime is rolling my way 

The sky's all on fire and the light's slowly fadin' 

Peaceful and still ends the day 

And out on the trail, the night birds are callin' 

Singin' their wild melody 

Down in the canyon, the cottonwood whispers 

A song of Wyoming for me 

I've wandered around the town and the city 

Tried to figure the how and the why 

I've stopped all my schemin' 

I'm just driftin' and dreamin' and watching the river roll by 

And here comes that big ole prairie moon risin' 

Shinin' down bright as can be 

And up on the hill there's a coyote singin' 

A song of Wyoming for me 

Well now it's whiskey and tobacco and bitter black coffee 

A lonesome old doggie am I 

Waking up on the range, Lord, I feel like an angel 

Free like I almost could fly 

Drift like a cloud out over the badlands 

Sing like a bird in the tree 

The wind through the sage sounds like Heaven singin' 

A song of Wyoming for me 

A song of Wyoming for me
