No sun on the rockies, not even the light of day I feel that old cabin fever coming on But i know where i'll be when lady luck finally blows my way She'll put the wind in my sails and i'll be gone It won't be long before my ship comes in Gonna sail right out of colorado Catch a ride on a warm trade wind to puerta no-one-knows She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows I'll be off to find myself once again in puerta no-one-knows When my ship comes in Maybe i'm only dreaming but it sure seems real Somehow the wind doesn't chill quite to the bone Or could it just be the fever i'm running on an uneven keel Not losing sight of why i'm up here alone Chorus It won't be long before my ship comes in She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in It won't be long before my ship comes in She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in When my ship comes in
