High Wide And Handsome Lyrics

This song appears on three albums, and was first released on The Flower That
Shattered The Stone album, and has also been released on the Stonehaven Sunrise
and The John Denver Collection - Take Me Home Country Roads albums.

High,
Wide and Handsome
Down from the great white north
More than enough and
then some
Swept her up on his own

Tumbleweeds were meant to
Get
stuck up on a fence
Heaven must have sent you
You've got no wire to roll
against

Keep her steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are
ready now girl
Never mind the growin' pains

Worlds out there are
waiting
Big and wild as the sky
No more hesitating
It's now or never,
do or die

Keep her steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You
are ready now girl
Never mind the growin' pains

As hard as you
imagined
It being without me
We'll both be wishing it were that
easy
Don't give me a pull, give me some room
When this round up is
through, I'll be coming back home

Wide open spaces
Between these two
prairie hearts
Wonderin' where their place is
In a world so far
apart

Keep her steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are
ready now girl
Never mind the growin' pains

Keep her steady
cowgirl
Don't let go of the reigns
You are ready now girl
Never mind
the growin' pains
