so the shepherd boy says to his lady in waitin give me your heart but give me some time i m not without hope and i m not hesitating myself and my treasure to find and i ll make my way back by the light of your heart in the darkest of night your flame i will see and we ll dance in the moon and we ll raise us some babies forever our souls will be together so he sells off his flock for a pick and a shovel and a fine leather bag to hold all that gold and he takes her soft hands one last time how he loves her with the winds of change blowin cold well goodbye tennessee here i come colorado i ll piss in your streets and sleep in your hills and i ll fill up my bag with your turquoise and silver suzanne i always will love you that night she lay still with the cold winds a blowin the sound of the whippoorwill callin through the trees hey that man with the soul the size of a pickle well he s left you to do as you please so she moves into town and enrolls in a college and gets her a job with a teaching degree said to hell with you fool you dreamer james butler by god i m gonna be happy  of course he comes back with holes in his pockets but ready to claim what he thought was still his she had a new house in town and a doctor for a husband and a nursery school full of kids so he finds him a rope strong enough for a hangin with his heart full of sorrow he finds him a tree but he can t take his life so he takes out his pen knife and carves i ll always be a dreamer a dreamer a dreamer
