Из альбома: The Essential Dottie West [RCA]
Along the wild Texas border, with no law and order
When Reno brought me to this land.
He was after the wild ones, the mustangs, the shy ones,
And hoping that I'd understand.
But there's too many long nights, a wife should have some rights
It seems that it's so plain to see
Reno my husband though he loves the wild ones
Much more than he'll ever love me.
He's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair
And a heart that is loving and wild
He's too much a-fire with ambitious desire
To be tied to a wife and a child.
The horses are coming, they soon will be running
And Reno will always be gone
These things I'm knowing, the Rio is flowing
And Reno, I'm goin back home.
Across the Mexican border my house all in order
I wait for a knock on my door
The little one, the small one, the son of the tall one
So peacefully plays on the floor.
But what are these yearnings that always keep burning
I feel so deeply inside
My love for Reno, my flashing young gringo
Has suddenly vanquished my pride.
He's riding somewhere out there with his raven black hair
And a heart that is loving and wild
He's so much a-fire and with too much desire
To be alone without a wife and a child.
The horses are coming, they soon will be running
And Reno will quickly be gone
There's no more waiting, no more hesitating,
Oh, Reno, I'm coming back home.
Wait Reno, I'm coming back home...
