There's a young man that I know whose age is twenty-one

Comes from down in southern Colorado

Just out of the service, he's lookin' for his fun



Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon



My parents can not stand him 'cause he rides the rodeo

My father says that he will leave me cryin'

I would follow him right down the roughest road I know

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon



But when he comes to call, my pa ain't got a good word to say

Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in his younger days



So blow, you old blue northern, blow my love to me

He's ridin' in tonight from California

He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon

Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon
