a little long with the time,
I find myself on the great divide.
Railroading on the great divide,
nothing around me but Rockies and sky.
Then you'll find me as years go by,
railroading on the great divide.
Asking the old timer from old Cheyenne,
Railroading while the old banks are the best in the land.
The long steel rails, the short cross tires,
All roll around the great divide.
It's railroading on the great divide,
nothing around me but Rockies and sky.
And that's where you'll find me as years go by,
railroading on the great divide.
Well I've rumbled and rambled all over your land,
from old California to the New York island.
And old in the morning she's a-glowin' with pride,
she's a-rollin' on the nation on the great divide.
And it's railroading on the great divide,
nothing around me but Rockies and sky.
There you'll find me as years go by,
railroading
on
the great divide.
