Put my brother in the meadow Lady in the pine Rooster crows, heaven knows Ain't no use cryin' Aye! aye! hear the cry All those days are done Ridin' on to glory In the saddle of the sun Gonna give my girl a pony Set her up to ride Through this world of trouble To the other side Aye! aye! hear the cry All rolls into one Ridin' on to glory In the saddle of the sun Lyin' in a starry night Wonderin' how the time keeps goin' on & on Lyin' in a starry night Dreamin' of the time when i'll be goin' home
Hand in hand with my sweet lady walkin' . . Gonna shake these old chains off me Shake ‘em to the floor I can't stand to hear ‘em rattle Anymore Aye! aye! hear the cry All those days are done Ridin' on to glory In the saddle of the sun Aye! aye! hear the cry Better days to come Ridin' on to glory In the saddle of the sun Lyin' in a starry night Wonderin' how the time keeps goin' on & on Lyin' in a starry night Dreamin' of the time when i'll be goin' . Goin' . . goin' . . goin' .
