As I ride to the ranch house in the sky
I?ll pick up all the strays as I ride the Milky Way
Headed for the ranch house in the sky.
BRANDIN? TIME
Come on fellows and get your rope, mount your ponies, this ain?t no joke Round up the doggies and bring them in ?cause it's brandin? time ?cause it's brandin? time, ?cause it?s brandin? time.
Light the fires and heat the iron, sorry little doggie, this don't seem kind But after all, it?s branding? time, yes. it?s brandin? time.
Wake up in the morning fore the break of day, mount your pony and be on your way Work and sweat the whole day through, ?cause it?s brandin? time.
Come on fellows we?ll hurry back, we?ll settle down in the old bunk shack Tired and weary with an achin? back after brandin? time, after brandin? time.
WE?LL TUCK OUR DREAMS AWAY
We?ll tuck our dreams away, until some sunny day when we can be together again They say in every life the rain is sure to fall and the blue sky turns to grey Please promise me sweet heart when we are far apart that you w ill always think of me So we?ll tuck our dreams away until that sunny day when we can be together forever and ever
When we can be together again.
