In the still of the night
I shall sing you a song
About the Wild West
And its opening
About the long rugged ride
And the frontiersman's pride
And the way that a man
Meets his reckoning
Close your eyes
By the rushing river side,
For you know that tonight
We shall be leaving
Close you eyes
To my western lullaby
For you know that
Singin' is believin'
Put your saddle on right
We shall ride away tonight
Across the wide open
Sheets of the prairie
Climb the mountains beneath your head
In your green grassy bed
Leave behind your visions
Dark and dreary
Close you eyes
To my western lullaby
For you know that
Singin' is believin'
Close you eyes
To my western lullaby
For you know that
Singin' is believin'
Now in the heat of the day
We shall float our time away
So much, you will forget
All that I'm saying
But in the still of the night
I will hold you so tight
That you will be on your knees
And praying
Ooh ooh ooh …
