Текст песни: Speckled Roan + перевод

I used to ride a little old speckled roan

I told him lots of things I wouldn’t have told at home

I said to the speckled roan, said I, «I'm so lonesome I could die,

but I ain’t gonna stay lonesome very long.»

I used to ride a little ole yellow dun

Mending fences, rode him in the rain and sun

I said to the yellow dun, said I, «I'm gonna be rich or know the reason why.

Gonna take my money to town and find the fun.»

And then I bought me a big old ropin' gray

Roped for money and I made it ev’ry day

But I said to the ropin' gray, said I, «I sure do miss that prairie sky,»

and he let out laughin' and he surely knowed the way

I brought my money home and I brought it home to stay

Couldn’t have stayed in town, not another day

I’m gonna live out under a prairie sky. Gonna live out there 'till the day I

die with the roan and the dun and the big old ropin' gray
