I am a man I live alone

Don't much bother me. It won't be long

Come a woman who wants to be near

Me and my mountains, we'll be right here

Colorado

Way back east in the dirt and smog

Courted a woman she had a job

Didn't want to leave her adopted home

Guess she was afraid of bein' alone in

Colorado

Way out yonder in tinsel land

Look around hard you might find a real man

Dark-eyed country girl, tears in her eyes

Needs the music of the wind in the pines

Colorado

Many's the time that I've gone astray

The things I'm thinkin' I seldom say

Guess I'm waitin' for that special girl

The one who loves me and loves my world

Colorado
