Hey Colorado it was not so long ago^?
I left your mountain to try life on the road
Now I'm finished with that race it was much too fast a pace
And I think I know my place Colorado I wanna come home
There was a woman but I left her far behind
I could have loved her if I only had the time
But I stopped along the way just long enough to say
Lord I'd really really like to stay
But my lady knows I've got to go
I was too young to know what I've done
I made my plans but I was wrong yes I was wrong
Hey Colorado is it too late to change my mind
I've done some thinking and I'm trying hard to find
The way to come back home
Oh I've been so very long alone
Won't you take care of your own Colorado I think I'm coming home
Burrito Brothers Cody Cody written by Hillman/Parsons/Leadon
Cody Cody I hear you say I hear your voice calling me away
I'm not afraid to think of what I might find
I will be yours will you be mine
We've all been young we've all been old
We've all been sheltered from the cold
Come to my side and say what I think I already know
I'm going away don't you want to go
I remember the face that Harvey drew it was of a man
That my eyes saw thru
Come by my side before the evening is gone
And see where else this body's flown
