[00:04.93]There is a young cowboy he lives on the range
[00:11.28]His horse and his cattle are his only companions
[00:17.25]He works in the saddle and he sleeps in the canyons
[00:22.20]Waiting for Summer, his pastures to change
[00:31.33]And as the moon rises he sits by his fire
[00:36.29]Thinking about women and glasses of beer
[00:41.50]And closing his eyes as the dogies retire
[00:46.38]He sings out a song which is soft but it's clear
[00:51.34]As if maybe someone could hear
[00:59.24]Goodnight you moonlight ladies
[01:04.39]Rockabye sweet baby James
[01:09.55]Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
[01:14.40]Won't you let me go down in my dreams
[01:19.40]And rockabye sweet baby James
[01:24.44]Now the first of December was covered with snow
[01:31.24]And so was the turnpike from Stockbridge to Boston
[01:37.23]Lord, the Berkshires seemed dream-like on account of that frosting
[01:42.42]With ten miles behind me and ten thousand more to go
[01:51.15]There's a song that they sing when they take to the highway
[01:56.58]A song that they sing when they take to the sea
[02:01.68]A song that they sing of their home in the sky
[02:06.73]Maybe you can believe it if it helps you to sleep
[02:11.87]But singing works just fine for me
[02:19.24]So, Goodnight you moonlight ladies
[02:24.47]Rockabye sweet baby James
[02:29.51]Deep greens and blues are the colors I choose
[02:34.22]Won't you let me go down in my dreams
[02:39.50]And rockabye sweet baby James
