Cheyenne Songtext

von Brandos

Cheyenne
(S. Kempner) I was just a boy
The first time I heard of Cheyenne
I fell in love with the word
What to me seems such a strange exotic land

Where cowboys still ride the high plains
Where heaven kisses the earth
And a person could be free enough
To find out what he was worth

Chorus:

Cheyenne
Someday Cheyenne
I'm gonna ride the high plains
Cheyenne
Can't you just picture me
A city boy in God's country

I'd never known anywhere other
Than the streets of my town
Too much of anything even the best things
Will finally get you down

I'd never been any farther west
Than the shores of Jersey
But I guess dreams were created
By a God in his infinite mercy

Chorus

Well I've seen a little bit of the world
These past few years
And while I'm still a young man
I've had my share of laughs I've shed my share of tears

Tonight when I get home
I'll settle back and turn on the TV
Or I could just close my eyes
And Cheyenne is where I will be

Chorus
