Snow Deer
Woody Guthrie
snow deer mine Moon’s a-shine through the pines While Mohawks sleep Let us creep through the vale Your cowboy lover your heart will cover Don’t hesitate it is late ponies wait For you and me by the trees in the dale Hear tom-toms beating let’s hit the trail My pretty snow deer say you will go dear From your side I’ll never part Every trail leads to your heart It’s time to marry no time to tarry Let me carry you from here my sweet snow deer The red men come Bullets hum there’ll be some Left on the trail I can’t fail cling to me We’ll crown the story with love and glory Now after all must I fall hear my call And fly away while we may can’t you see? Those ranch lights gleaming safe there we’ll be My pretty snow deer say you will go dear From your side I’ll never part Every trail leads to your heart It’s time to marry no time to tarry Let me carry you from here my sweet snow deer My pretty snow deer say you will go dear From your side I’ll never part Every trail leads to your heart It’s time to marry no time to tarry Let me carry you from here my sweet snow deer
