Cheyenne

I was just a boy The first time I heard of Cheyenne I fell in love with the word, and what to me, Seemed such a strange exotic land Where cowboys still rode the high plains And Heaven kisses the Earth And a person could be free enough To find out what he was worth Cheyenne, someday Cheyenne, I'm gonna ride the high plains Cheyenne, can't you just picture me A city boy in God's Country I'd never known anywhere Other than the streets of this town And too much of anything Even the best things finally get you down I'd never been any farther west Than the shores of Jersey But, I guess dreams were created By a God in His infinite mercy Cheyenne, someday Cheyenne, I'm gonna ride the high plains Cheyenne, can't you just picture me A city boy in God's Country I've seen a little bit of the world These last few years And while I'm still a young man I've had my share of laughs Shed my share of tears Tonight when I get home I'll settle back Maybe turn on the TV Or I could just close my eyes And Cheyenne is where I will be Cheyenne, someday Cheyenne, I'm gonna ride the high plains Cheyenne, can't you just picture me A city boy in God's Country Cheyenne Cheyenne Cheyenne Hey, picture me A city boy in God's Country
