"Goodbye Colorado" lyrics - RECKLESS KELLY

RECKLESS KELLY
"Goodbye Colorado"

[Chorus:]
Goodbye Colorado, goodbye Arizona
Goodbye Nevada, goodbye New Mexico
God bless the west, Texas, yes, you know I'll miss you so
So it's goodbye Colorado, boys, I'm headed home

It's been a long hard year
Who knows when it might end?
And this reign hangin' over us
Might break but it won't bend

[Chorus:]
So it's goodbye Louisiana, goodbye Oklahoma
Goodbye Nebraska, goodbye Ohio
God bless the rest, Kansas, yes, you know I'll miss you so
So it's goodbye Louisiana, boys, I'm headed home

I made my home in these ancient lands
Yearning to breathe free
Tempest tossed by the mother of exiles
Now I take my leave

[Chorus:]
So it's goodbye Colorado, goodbye Arizona
Goodbye Montana, goodbye sweet Idaho
God bless the west, Texas, yes, you know I'll miss you so
So it's goodbye Colorado
Boys, I'm headed home
