Rocky Mountain Suite (cold Nights In Canada) Lyrics - John Denver

Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta 

Two men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride 

To see the high country and learn of her people 

The ways that they live there, the ways that they die 

One is a teacher, and one a beginner 

Just wanting to be there, wanting to know 

And together they're trying to tell us a story 

That should have been listened to long, long ago 

How the life in the mountains is living in danger 

From too many people, too many machines 

And the time is upon us, today is forever 

Tomorrow is just one of yesterday's dreams

Cold nights in Canada and icy blue winds 

The man and the mountains are brothers again 

Clear waters are laughing, they sing to the skies 

The Rockies are living, they never will die 

Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta 

Two men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride.
