I WAS IN PARIS WAITING FOR A FLIGHT
WHEN THIS GUY CAME UP TO ME AND SAID
(Paul) HAVE YOU GOT A LIGHT?
WELL, I WAS BORN IN ARIZONA
AND WHEN I WAS ONLY THREE
MY MOTHER TOOK ME TO HER SADDLE
AND WE RODE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
ON THE WIDE PRAIRIE, WIDE PRAIRIE
AND WE RODE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
MY MOTHER TOOK ME TO HER SADDLE
AND WE RODE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
WELL, I WAS RAISED IN ASHTABULA
AND WHEN I WAS ONLY TEN
MY FATHER TOOK ME TO HIS SADDLE
AND WE RODE THE RANGE AGAIN.
ON THE WIDE PRAIRIE, WIDE PRAIRIE
AND WE RODE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
MY FATHER TOOK ME TO HIS SADDLE
AND WE RODE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
AND I AIN'T GOING BACK
NO, I AIN'T GOING BACK
GOING BACK NO MORE.
WELL, NOW WE LIVE IN ALBUQUERQUE
AND WE RAISE THE FAMILY TREE
WE SPEND OUR DAYS A' FEELING PERKY
AND WE RIDE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
ON THE WIDE PRAIRIE, WIDE PRAIRIE
AND WE RIDE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
WE SPEND OUR DAYS A' FEELING PERKY
AND WE RIDE THE WIDE PRAIRIE.
