Dottie West - Reno lyrics

Along the wild Texas border, was no law and order When Reno brought me to this land He was after the wild ones, the mustangs, the shy ones And hoping that I'd understand But there's too many long nights, a wife should have some rights It seems that it's so plain to see Reno my husband, oh, he loves the wild ones Much more than he'll ever love me He's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair And a heart that is loving and wild He's too much afire with ambitious desire To be tied to a wife and a child The horses are cunning, they soon will be running And Reno will always be gone These things I'm knowing, the Rio is flowing And Reno, I'm goin' back home 'Cross the Mexican border, my house all in order I wait for a knock on my door Little Juan, the small one, the son of the tall one So peacefully plays on the floor But what are these yearnings that always keep burning? I feel so deeply inside My love for Reno, my flashing young gringo Has suddenly vanquished my pride He's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair And a heart that is loving and wild He's so much afire and with too much desire To be alone without a wife and a child The horses are cunning, they soon will be running And Reno will quickly be gone There's no more waiting, no more hesitating Oh, Reno, I'm coming back home Wait Reno, I'm coming back home
