Lyrics
0:05What a beautiful day it is here
0:06And how beautiful you look out there
0:08Just look great
0:15I packed up my bags
0:19Put in my favorite Levis
0:23Laid my mandolin beside the door
0:29I said to momma
0:31I won't be long
0:34Don't worry about me
0:38I'll be home before dark
0:45I'll be alright
0:49And you'll be fine without me
0:53I'll be home before dark
1:00Bought a ticket to New York city
1:08One way out and no return
1:15I watched the sun go down across the plains from Denver
1:23Lord how the western sky can burn
1:30Met a boy in the darkness
1:33Handsome tall and heartless
1:37Loved him like an eagle loves the wind
1:42Till I heard him say
1:45I won't be long
1:48Don't worry about me
1:52I'll be home before dark
1:56I'll be home
2:00I'll be alright
2:02And you'll be fine without me
2:07I'll be home before dark
2:28My daughter looks like him they say
2:31To me she looks like momma
2:36I see an eagle's shadow in her eyes
2:43Last night at her birthday
2:45We blew the candles out together
2:50I wonder will she take me by surprise
2:56When she says momma
2:59I won't be long
3:01Don't worry about me
3:05I'll be home before dark
3:09I'll be home
3:13I'll be alright
3:16And you'll be fine without me
3:20I'll be home before dark
3:28I'll be home before dark
What a beautiful day it is here And how beautiful you look out there Just look great I packed up my bags Put in my favorite Levis Laid my mandolin beside the door I said to momma I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark I'll be alright And you'll be fine without me I'll be home before dark Bought a ticket to New York city One way out and no return I watched the sun go down across the plains from Denver Lord how the western sky can burn Met a boy in the darkness Handsome tall and heartless Loved him like an eagle loves the wind Till I heard him say I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark I'll be home I'll be alright And you'll be fine without me I'll be home before dark My daughter looks like him they say To me she looks like momma I see an eagle's shadow in her eyes Last night at her birthday We blew the candles out together I wonder will she take me by surprise When she says momma I won't be long Don't worry about me I'll be home before dark I'll be home I'll be alright And you'll be fine without me I'll be home before dark I'll be home before dark
