One More Ride

A I long for a trip, I don't need no grip, I'm takin' one more ride D 'Way out there in the prarie air I guess it's in my hide A E7 Oh, the clickety clack of the railroad track is callin' A If a man could know where the Santa Fe goes when she gets under steam D and the big round bell that bongs farewell Could hear her whistle scream A E7 A He's bound to go where there ain't no snow a-fallin' E7 A D E7 A One more ride, one more ride I miss the gloom of the prarie moon that seemed to know my name and the tumbleweed where the prarie dog feed, I miss them just the same They're all a part of my song at heart I'm singin' I recall a tune that I sang to the moon and it seemed to make it smile And I rode away at the close of day and I stayed so long, awhile But I long to be where the memory is ringin' One more ride, one more ride As the years go by, I wonder why I long to leave my home And I hit the trail of the iron rail away out there alone But my heart just sighed 'till I know that I am leavin' If I don't come back on a one-way track way down from Mexico You can find me there or any old where that a tumbleweed will grow It's goodbye now, you'll never know how I'm grievin' One more ride, one more ride
