The Land Of My Boyhood Dreams - Hank Snow

Alone in a great big city

I’m as lonesome as I can be

Far from the open spaces

And a home that is dear to me

It’s years since I left the prairies

Where coyotes roam at night

And howl while the stars are blinking

And the moon shines clear and bright

I’m getting so old and feeble

My days are nearly done

Oh!

how I long for the prairies

Where the cattle and mustangs run

Take me out there where the cowboys

Sing in the campfire’s gleam

Oh!

let me rest out in Texas

The land of my boyhood dreams;

For I’m getting so old and feeble

My days are nearly done

Oh!

how I long for the prairies

Where the cattle and mustangs roam
