A sinner's prayer is never answered
A sinner's dream cannot come true
The one I love now loves another
So sad am I, alone and blue

Upon my bosom lies your picture
With tear dimmed eyes I placed it there
Down on my knees, I pray to Heaven

I'm sitting here waiting, my heart's in despair
Three days and three hours, and then it's a chair
I spoke to my lawyer, he just shook his head
The Governor won't help you, "No pardon" he said

I knew I was guilty, but what could I do
She told me she loved him and that we were through
I grabbed my revolver, half crazy with hate

Aye-hi-aye-aye
Beautiful girl on the Prairie
WIth eyes of blue and a heart so true
She's a girl I am going to marry

Aye-hi-aye-aye
Beautiful girl on the Prairie
We ride along we'll sing a song

I'm just driftwood on the river, floating down the tide
I don't care where this old river carries me
I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside
And I'm tired of wishing for what cannot be

I may meet some little driftwood, lost as same as I
Share a handshake and a tender tear or two
But it's always good luck how we got to say goodbye

I'M GONNA TEAR DOWN THE MAILBOX

I'm gonna tear down the mailbox, tear up the address.
I never get no letters anyhow.
I'm gonna move to the country out on the R.F.D.
At least I'll get a catalogue to keep me company.
They say the postman always rings you twice. I don't know the gent.
Every time I answer, it's the landlord for the rent.

Where are the blue eyes that sparkle so bright
Where are the arms that once held me so tight
Gone with the Angels, gone from this world
Oh, how I miss you, my sweet baby girl
One golden curl, one golden curl
Sealed in a locket all covered with pearls
One golden curl, one golden curl
Just to remember, my sweet baby girl

In the blue Canadian Rockies
Spring is sighing through the trees
And the golden poppies are blooming
Round the banks of Lake Louise
Across the sea they call me
And I'm lonesome and so blue
For the blue Canadian Rockies
And the boy I love so true
