Lyrics

Intro
He couldn’t ride, he couldn’t read
But he grew up tall as a cottonwood tree
Left the farm in a New York minute
For a better life he’d never see
Verse 1
He couldn’t ride, he couldn’t read
But he grew up tall as a cottonwood tree
Left the farm in a New York minute
For a better life he’d never see
Verse 2
No goodbye, no reprieve
His mama cried and his daddy grieved
He left the farm headed for Dodge City
Stubborn as a thistle weed
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Blow, blow prairie wind
He ain’t never coming back again
I hear his voice calling me
Down Fall River to the Verdigris
Blow, blow prairie wind
He ain’t never coming back again
I hear his voice calling me
Down Fall River to the Verdigris
Verse 3
Well he couldn’t lie, couldn’t reave
He fell into a den of thieves
They took his life for forty dollars
Took his love away from me
Pre-Chorus
Chorus
Solo - 2x over clave progression
(expresses the murder of Jeffrey Gill)
Abbreviated Verse
He couldn’t ride, he couldn’t read
Grew up tall as a cottonwood tree
Chorus
Blow, blow prairie wind
He ain’t never coming back again
I hear his voice calling me
Down Fall River to the Verdigris
Blow, blow prairie wind
He ain’t never coming back again
I hear his ghost calling me
Down Fall River to the Verdigris
Down Fall River to the Verdigris
