Caroline,
In the mountains the sun sets up in ribbons so high, it's like I don't never wanna get old...
don't ever wanna die.
We been seein' steady rain, 'bout to drive us all insane, nearly lost a few head up in the pines.
At night, when some of the boys get to talking up their girls back home, you know I tell 'em there ain't none as fine as mine.
I can hear old Chapman sayin' come morning we'll break the range, be pushin' hard now for the plains.
I close my eyes and I can see you...
I close my eyes and I can feel you here.
God willin' an the creek don't rise, I'll be home again before this time next year.
Though I fear this fever won't break...
-All my love
