Lyrics Ricky Nelson

Ricky Nelson

Restless Kid

I came in like a restless wind

On a wagon train

But I'm gonna go like a July snow

Back to where I came from

Gonna leave this hum drum

It's to slow and tame

None of your business where I've been

Don't ask me what I've done

Run your ranch and punch your cows

And stay behind my gun man

Colorado's right hand will put you on the run

I got a gal in Denver town

That's crying over me

But I said goodbye and I let her cry

I miss her company

But I'll get out of this rut Rio Bravo's killin' me

They got a man locked in a cell

That's a free'r man than I

He's gonna laugh right in their face

When they lead him out to die

And he's gonna leave this badland

And ride off in the sky

You're gonna see ol' Colorado Headin' for the door

You better believe I'm gonna leave Like the 904 train

Gotta breath some air again

That ain't been breathed before
