John Denver High, Wide and Handsome song lyrics

High, wide and handsome

Down from the Great White North

More than enough and then some

Swept her up on his horse

Tumbleweeds were meant to

Get stuck up on a fence

Heaven must have sent you

You've got no wire to roll against

Keep her steady, cowgirl

Don't let go of the reins

You are ready now, girl

Never mind the growin' pains

Worlds out there are waiting

Big and wild as the sky

No more he-si-tating

It's now or never, do or die

Keep her steady, cowgirl

Don't let go of the reins

You are ready now, girl

Never mind the growin' pains

As hard as you imagined it being without me

We'll both be wishing it were that easy

Don't give me a pull, give me some room

When this round is through, I'll be comin' back home

Wide open spaces

Between these two prairie hearts

Wonderin' where their place is

In a world so far apart

Keep her steady, cowgirl

Don't let go of the reins

You are ready now, girl

Never mind the growin' pains
