One more ride I long for a trip, I don't need no grip
I'm takin' one more ride
Way out there in the prairie air I guess it's in my hide
Oh the clickety clack of the railroad track is callin'
I'm a man that knows where the Santa Fe goes
When she gets under steam
And the big loud bell bids a fond farewell
You could hear her whistle scream
She's bound to go where there ain't no snow a fallin'
One more ride, one more ride
I miss the gloom of the pale light moon
That seemed to know my name
And the tumbleweeds where the prairie dogs feed
I miss them just the same
They're all a part of a song of the heart I'm singin'
I recall the tune that I sang to the moon
It seemed to make him smile
As I rode away at the close of the day
And I stayed so long awhile
But I long to be where the memory is ringin'
One more ride, one more ride
As the years go by I'll wonder why
I longed to leave my home
And to hit the trail of the iron rail, away out there alone
But my heart would sigh till I know that I am leavin'
If I don't come back, there's a one way track
Way down in Mexico
You'll find me there or any old
Where that a tumbleweed will grow
So it's goodbye now you'll never know how I'm grievin'
One more ride, one more ride
