He'd left her cryin' back in San Antonio

Cody darlin', won't you hurry home
C

Now trailing longhorn cattle

is a life that's wild and free

And the prairie is a puncher's paradise

But it was dark and deadly
C

in the spring of 83
Am
D

readin' on the rise
We were at the wagon,
C

playin' cards and tellin' lies
We told him he was crazy,

But Cody smiled
D

and saddled up the roam
D

He turned his collar to the wind
Am
C
D
G
And whistling Dixie he rode out of sight
C

And trailing longhorn cattle

hell in paradise
