I was out in the wild
Trying to catch some supper
And bring it home to sweet mama..
But when the pony headed back
To our home valley..

I knew I'd been gone too long:
- And I crossed the Rock River the day before she died

I reached home just afer dark..
But she was nowhere on our land...
Looking for mama
Saw the rope above her

So I kicked the frontdoor open
And the shadow of the dirty gunman...
- And I crossed the Rock River the day before she died

I chased him through Arkansas
From Texas to Missouri...

He was haunted
From Saint Antoine To Saint Louis
But I had the time
He took me up north
I wanted him back
To the scene of the crime

- And he crossed the Rock River the day before he died...

Well, we reached Rock River
And we reached the other side...
Kinda fraid for his life
And I hitted him
He looked back
I pulled my trigger
Right between the eyes
And then I roped him up to mama
To the roaches & the flys...

Rock River Rock River
Rock River Rock River
Rock River
