Along the Navajo Trail Songtext
von Artie Shaw

Every day, along about evening
When the sunlight′s beginning to pale
I ride through the slumbering shadows

Along the Navajo Trail
When it's night and crickets are callin′
And coyotes are makin' a wail
I dream by a smoldering fire
Along the Navajo Trail


I love to lie and listen to the music
When the wind is strummin' a sagebrush guitar
When over yonder hill the moon is climbin′
It always finds me wishin′ on a star
Well what a ya know, it's mornin′ already
There's the dawnin′, so silver and pale
It's time to climb into my saddle
And ride the Navajo Trail

I love to lie and listen to the music
When the wind is strummin′ a sagebrush guitar
When over yonder hill the moon is climbin'
It always finds me wishin' on a star
Well what a ya know, it′s mornin′ already
There's the dawnin′, so silver and pale (like a silvery veil)
It's time to climb into my saddle

And ride the Navajo Trail
Ride the Navajo Trail
Ride the Navajo Trail
