Colorado Line Songtext
von Jackson Emmer

There′s 28 bullet holes in the utah border sign
When you fly over that colorado line
Is you coming? is you going?
The rattlesnakes don't care
Way on down that colorado line

Go head north to laramie
Wind so sharp your tears′ll freeze
You'll see why those cowboys like to drink
Now my money's gone, but i′m feeling fine
Feeding off the sweet sunshine
Way on down that colorado line


My mind got lazy rhyming
Down the lonesome road to limon
Figured a little prairie would do me good
Sure, i dreamt of tennessee
But came back home with my tail between
Back over that colorado line

Fell for a girl i didn′t know
With auburn eyes and alpenglow
Mountain men would kill to dance with her
It could've worked, but for my wife
For my job and for my life
Back over that colorado line

There′s 28 bullet holes in the utah border sign
When you fly over that colorado line
Is you coming? is you going?
The rattlesnakes don't care
Way on down that colorado line
