My Wild Frontier Lyrics

(Franne Golde, Robin Lerner, Marsha Malamet)

How do I feel? Well, I feel so alone

Like a sad armadillo across this desert I roam

I've been stripped down, bare, 'til I break

Still the wheel keeps turning

Had me a sweet one, I tell no lie

Summer nights in the cornfields

When the corn gets so high

We traveled clear across Wichita, headin' north

Leavin' civilization

And there were highways to get across

And places far from here

And I was his lonesome prairie

And he was my wild frontier

Harvested peaches in a small border town

Saved all our wages

Put ten percent down

I never thought I'd see the world through a child's eyes

Until early December

Then one Calgary morning

Still as glass

While my baby lay sleeping, an angel slipped past

And with one breath said I'm taking him back

To his Father in Heaven

Through gravel and ice and new fallen snow

I held him through my tears

Because I was his lonesome prairie

And he was my wild frontier

Get along, get along, get along

Get along, get along, get along

Oh, oh, oh

Get along, get along, get along

Get along, get along, get along

Oh, oh, oh

And sometimes at night

I swear I can hear him

Calling out so clear

He says, "You were my lonesome prairie

And I'm still your wild frontier"

Get along, get along, get along

Get along, get along, get along

Oh, oh, oh

Get along, get along, get along

Get along, get along, get along

Oh, oh, oh

Babe, I miss you
