THE GAL I LEFT BEHIND ME



I struck the trail in seventy-nine,

The herd strung out behind me;

As I jogged along, my mind went back

To the girl I left behind me.



cho: That sweet little gal, that true little gal

That gal I left behind me,

That sweet little gal, that true little gal

That gal I left behind me,



If I ever get off the trail

And the Indians they don't find me,

I'll make my way straight back again

To the gal I left behind me.



The wind did blow, the rain did flow,

The hail did fall and blind me;

I thought of that gal, that sweet little gal,

That gal I'd left behind me.



She wrote ahead to t@e place I said,

I was always glad to find it;

She says, "I'm true, when you get through

Ride back and you will find me.



When we sold out, I took the trail

I knew when I would find her;

When I got back, we had a smack,

And that was no gol-darned liar.
