Another Colorado

Down by the banks of the Colorado My true love and I one night did lie And we laughed and played and made fun Of the entire world spinning 'round the sun Down by the banks of the Colorado Up from the banks of the Colorado Night watchmen stood guard 'round the wagon yard And I took a pillar for a sign That the salt of the earth was surely mine Up from the banks of the Colorado There is another Colorado Wise men have told me, wise women too That I may find sweet El Dorado Down by the banks of one sweet Colorado Down by the banks of the Colorado The years flowed softly before my eyes And the circus joined me in my quest And stayed with me throughout my test Down by the banks of the Colorado There is another Colorado Wise men have told me, wise women too That I may find my sweet El Dorado Down by the banks of one sweet Colorado
