Calamity jane with howard keel

Take me back to the black hill
the black hills of decota
the beautiful indian country that i know
take me back to the black hills
the black hills of decota
the beautiful indian country that i love

and when i get that lonsome feeling
and when im miles away from
i hear the mystic mountains calling me back home

so take me back to the black hills
the black hills of decota
the beautiful indian country that i know
take me back to the black hills
the black hills of decota
the beautiful indian country that i love
