I Can Still Make Cheyenne

<br>Her telephone rang `bout a quarter to nine<br>She heard his voice on the other end of the line<br>She wondered what was wrong this time<br>She never knew what his calls might bring<br>With a cowboy like him, it could be anything<br>And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind<br><br>He said it`s cold out here, and I`m all alone<br>I didn`t make the short go, again, and I`m coming home<br>I know I`ve been away too long<br>I never got a chance to write or call<br>And I know this rodeo has been hard on us all<br>But I`ll be home soon <br>And, Honey, is there something wrong?<br><br>Chorus<br>She said don`t bother coming home<br>By the time you get here I`ll be long gone<br>There`s somebody new and it sure ain`t no rodeo man<br>He said I`m sorry it`s come down to this<br>There`s so much about you that I`m gonna miss<br>But it`s alright baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne<br>Gotta go now baby, if I hurry I can still make Cheyenne<br><br>He left that phone dangling off the hook<br>Then slowly turned around and gave it one last look<br>Then he just walked away<br>He aimed his truck at the Wyoming line<br>With a little luck he could still get there in time<br>And in that Cheyenne wind he could still hear her say<br><br><br>repeat CHORUS<br><br>She never knew what his calls might bring<br>With a cowboy like him, it could be anything<br>And she always expected the worst in the back of her mind
