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 |
