Sam, won’t you please take me
West to wyoming, down the valley?
Can we go and never come back?
Let the dust rise up and cover our tracks
When you feel like you know everyone you meet
And you’re walking up and down the same old street
When the salt starts to lose its taste, you better find yourself in another place
You can hang tight but not too long, dream all night and in the morning it’s gone
Just how long, how long will you wait?
And what more, what more can you take?
Sam, won’t you please take me
West to wyoming, down the valley?
Can we go and never come back?
Let the dust rise up and cover our tracks
What doesn’t seem right isn’t always wrong
If the law is the light, I’ll honor the dawn
He got down on a knee, said “be patient, please.”
Peter said, “yes, but you gotta’ do the same for me.”
You can buy it, but they made it to break
It gets harder telling the real from the fake
So, spark a lucky strike, watch the smoke fade
This storm will blow away your hit parade
Sam, won’t you please take me
West to wyoming, down the valley?
Can we go and never come back?
Let the dust rise up and cover our tracks
There’s a girl who someday I’ll meet
She has jewels on her hands, and dirt on her feet. And, she promised a prayer for me, if I ever make it back to milwaukee
Sam, won’t you please take me
West to wyoming, down the valley?
Can we go and never come back?
Let the dust rise up and cover our tracks
