Well, we never found the cattle But we saw where they’d been So I guess they’ll have To make it on their own
And the snow it just keeps fallin’ Like it’s never gonna end So red I guess We better move along
Make it home, make it home She’ll have supper on the table And a fire burnin’ warm by the bed Make it home, make it home And I’ll put you in your stable You know that I depend upon you, red Make it home
Well, I thought I knew this valley I used to know the way But the snow has caused it All to look the same
Can you see where you’re goin’ Cause I can’t see a thing But I won’t let go My hands around your mane
Come on, red, get up This ain’t no time to sleep Got to keep on movin’ Or they’ll find us in the spring
Well, I think I smell the wood smoke And I think I see a light And I think I hear her callin’ in the wind
And it’s just a little farther And everything will be alright Got a feelin’ that our journey’s ‘bout to end
