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
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
Colorado
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
Colorado
Many's the time 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
Colorado
Colorado
