Way Out There Lyrics - Singles - Sons Of The Pioneers

A lonely spot, I know where no man will go 

Where the shadows have all the room 

I was ridin' free on the old SP 

Humming a southern tune 

When a man came along made me hush my song 

Kicked me off, way out there 

As she pulled out of sight I turned to the right 

A left and everywhere 

But all I could see was a cactus tree 

And a prairie dog playing there 

I watched the prairie dog feed on the tumbleweed 

That's his home, way out there 

So I threw down my load in the desert road 

Rested my weary legs too 

I watched the sinking sun, make the tall shadows run 

Out across that barren plain 

Then I hummed a tune to the risin' moon 

He gets lonesome way out there 

So I closed my eyes to the starlit skies 

And lost myself in dreams 

I dreamed the desert sand was a milk and honey land 

Then I awoke with a start 

There the train comin' back on that one way track 

Gonna take me away from here 

As she was passin' by, I caught her on the fly 

I climbed in an open door 

Then I turned around to that desert ground 

Saw the spot I would see no more 

As I was ridin' away 

I heard the pale moon say 

Farewell pal 

It sure gets lonesome here
