Telluride

Now the girls in telluride do it like this



Cross their fingers when they kiss you



Don't say nothing behind your back



And they don't take nothin' that they don't give back



Take the gold into telluride



Work all winter in the tomboy mine



Dreamin' of what we'll do



When the snow finally ends



And the spring breaks through



We'll load up the wagon and set the little one by our side



Take the gold into telluride



I'd like to lay you down on a cannonball bed



Put a soft feather pillow down by your head



Intertwine flowers into a maiden's veil



Wake you in the morning



Now she's wailing take the gold into telluride



Ain't nothing'll stop an avalanche when it's sliding



Once the wagon starts to roll,

you can't turn the mule and the brakes don't hold



You end up in the valley with the little one by your side



Take the gold into telluride



Lace curtains for the windows



Dreams torn from a catalog page



We may wander where the wind blows



You change your views but our love won't change



She gonna climb you high on top of a hill



Fall asleep laughing with the whipporwill



Intertwined flowers in the matrons ring



Wake you in the morning



Now she's singing take the gold into telluride



I loved my winter with a teenage bride



Dreamin of what we'll do



When the snow finally ends



And the spring breaks through



We'll load up the wagon, set the little one by our side



Take the gold into telluride



Take the gold into telluride
