No sun on the rockies, not even the light of day

I feel that old cabin fever coming on

But i know where i'll be when lady luck finally blows my way

She'll put the wind in my sails and i'll be gone

It won't be long before my ship comes in

Gonna sail right out of colorado

Catch a ride on a warm trade wind to puerta no-one-knows

She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in

Gonna board and go whichever way the wind blows

I'll be off to find myself once again in puerta no-one-knows

When my ship comes in

Maybe i'm only dreaming but it sure seems real

Somehow the wind doesn't chill quite to the bone

Or could it just be the fever i'm running on an uneven keel

Not losing sight of why i'm up here alone

Chorus

It won't be long before my ship comes in

She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in

It won't be long before my ship comes in

She'll find me waiting when my ship comes in

When my ship comes in
