HIGH, WIDE AND HANDSOME
Words and music by Chuck Pyle
From the album THE FLOWER THAT SHATTERED THE STONE -
John Denver
High, Wide and Handsome
Down from the great white north
More than enough and then some
Swept her up on his horse
Thumbleweeds were meant to
Get stuck up on a fence
Heaven must have sent you
You've got no wire to roll against
Chorus:
Keep her steady cowgirl
Don't let go of the reins
You are ready now girl
Never mind the growin' pains
Worlds out there are waiting
Big and wild as the sky
No more hesitating
It's now or never, do or die
Chorus:
As hard as you imagined
It being without me
We'll both be wishing it were that easy
Don't give me a pull, give me some room
When this round is through,
I'll be comin' back home
Wide open spaces
Between these two prairie hearts
Wonderin' where their place is
In a world so far apart
Chorus:
