Wyoming

Well, I never took her out of my suitcase

Though I brought her here with me

In a frame we bought in Mexico

Back when I thought we agreed

And she didn't travel lightly

She hardly ever does

She's still as heavy in my memory as she ever was

And she asked me, "Why, why, Wyoming?"

And I answered, "Why, why, why, why not?"

And I made her cry, cry, cry by going

To Wyoming

I know I should have called her from Cody

When I was running out of gas

But I just drove on 'cause it seemed like

Gone was a place I had to get too fast

Now, I'm all broke down in Dubois

Where my heart's inclined to stay

At least as much as came here with me anyway

She asked me, "Why, why, Wyoming?"

And I answered, "Why, why, why, why not?"

And I made her cry, cry, cry by going

To Wyoming

I didn't stop to face our problems, I just headed west

I thought I'd get where I was going

But I haven't yet, I haven't yet

She asked me, "Why, why, Wyoming?"

And I answered, "Why, why, why, why not?"

And I made her cry, cry, cry by going

To Wyoming

I made her cry, cry, cry by going

To Wyoming
