Abstract

Joe and Glen you could depend on
Along ^the river and t^he breaks
In rough country and wⁱld weather
They’d be the one^s you’d take

Pure _poetry in _motⁱon
A^s ac_ross th_e hills they’d fly
Excitement in the hunt
And the freedom of the sky

We’ll pick up the r_adio
And try to cal_l -‘57’
It’s then that it wi_ll hit us
As we gaze into the heavens

Whenever we hear the engine
Of a plane in distant sk_y
We’ll stop and reminisce
Of our friends that’s gone ^by

The sheep herds move to higher ground
With coyotes soon to follow
The wind will blow and bring a chill
Le^avin’ an emptiness that’s hard to swallow

Their memories we’ll cherish
As we loa^d the truck each morn’
They’re the ones we’ll long for
As we ride out in the storm
