Lyrics for In Lonesome Dove by Garth Brooks:
| | | Artist: | Garth Brooks |
| | Album: | Ropin The Wind | | Track: | In Lonesome Dove | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 356 | | | | Lyrics: | Cynthia Limbaugh/Garth Brooks)
She was a girl on a wagon train
Haded west across the
plains
The train got lost in a summer storm
They couldn't move west and they couldn't go
home
Then she saw him ridin' through the rain
He took charge of the wagons and he saved
the train
And she looked down and her heart was gone
The train went west but she stayed
on
In Lonesome Dove
A farmer's daughter with a gentle hand
A blooming rose in a
bed of sand
She loved the man who wore a star
A Texas Ranger known near and far
So
they got married and they had a child
But times were touch and the West was wild
So it was
no surprise the day she learned
That her Texas man would not return
To Lonesome
Dove
CHORUS
Back to back with the Rio Grande
A Christian woman in the devil's
land
She learned the language and she learned to fight
But she never learned how to beat
the lonely nights
In Lonesome Dove, Lonesome Dove
She watched her boy grow into a
man
He had an angel's heart and the devil's hand
He wore his star for all to see
He
was a Texas lawman legacy
The one day word blew into town
It seemed the men that shot his
father down
Had robbed a bank in Cherico
The only thing 'tween them and Mexico
Was
Lonesome Dove
The shadows stretched across the land
As the shots rang out down the
Rio Grande
And when the smoke had finally cleared the street
The men lay at the ranger's
feet
But legend tells to this very day
That shots were comin' from an alleyway
Though
no one knows who held the gun
There ain't no doubt if you ask someone
In Lonesome
Dove
CHORUS
