Cheyenne River
words and music by
Josie Kuhn
Sun up til sundown
Hauling
gravel up and down these roads
Pick up at Pine Ridge
Always seems
to be one more load
To Cheyenne river
212 gonna be my
route
Tonight the moonlight
Gonna lead me back to Thunder
Butte
Bear Creek to Kyle
Black hills and some one horse town
West to Wyoming
Wind River and I'm homeward
bound
{chorus]
I can almost see it now
Silhouetted by the
moon
Coyotes howlin' on the mesa top
Telling me to come back
soon
I put in my hours
Breakin' my back on a ten day
stretch
Back to the Badlands
And I got less than eighty miles
left
{chorus}
