Hank Snow One More Ride Lyrics

One More Ride Lyrics

One more ride



I will long for a trip, don't need no grip

I'm
takin' one more ride

'Way out there in the prairie air

I guess it's
in my hide

For the clickety-clack of the railroad track is callin'

If a man that knows where the Santa Fe goes

When she gets under
steam

And a big loud bell bids a fond farewell

To hear her whistle
scream

She's bound to go where there ain't no snow a-fallin'

One
more ride



I will miss the gloom of the pale white moon

That
seemed to know my name

And the tumbleweeds where the prairie dogs
feed

I miss them just the same

They're all a part of the song in my
heart I'm singin'

I recall a tune that I sang to the moon

It seemed
to make him smile

As I rode away at the close of day

And stayed so
long, awhile

But I long to be where the memory is ringin'

One more
ride



As the years roll by, I wonder why

I long to leave my
home

And hit the trail of the iron rail

Away out there alone

But my heart will sigh 'til I know that I am leavin'

If I don't come
back there's a one-way track

Way down in Mexico

You'll find me
there or any old where

That a tumbleweed will grow

So it's goodbye
now, you'll never know how I'm grievin'

One more ride
