Buffalo Dreams |
| Just one more child of the prairie |
| Whisperin' prairie winds blow through my soul |
| Her endless skies amaze me still |
| And I expect they always will |
| And some envisions out past my control |
| Conestoga wagons in their thousands |
| A-carried restless hearts across these plains |
| Dreams of fertile land or gold |
| Fed a hunger uncontrolled |
| And bred an endless line of wagon trains |
| Jack-knife winds won’t ever cease their blowing |
| Summer sun’s burned down on dwindlin' streams |
| Women stand in doorways looking southward |
| While old men lie and dream their buffalo dreams |
| I stand starlight struck tonight in Kansas |
| Beside a trail still visible today |
| Soon these fields of waving weed will |
| Rise in the summer rain and heat ‘til |
| Harvest crews come carry them away |
| Jack-knife winds won’t ever cease their blowing |
| Summer sun burns down on dwindlin' streams |
| Women stand in doorways lookin' southward |
| While old men lie and dream their buffalo dreams |
| Something in her prairie soil has bound me |
| Whispering grasses are my evening song |
| Steamboats on the wide Missouri |
| Whistle as they barrel through |
| Prepared tonight to carry me along |
| And the jack-knife winds won’t ever cease their blowing |
| Summer sun burns down on dwindlin' streams |
| Women stand in doorways lookin' southward |
| While old men lie and dream their buffalo dreams |
| The old men lie and dream their buffalo dream |
