Red river keep on rolling down
It's been a long time since i let my hair hang down
I'll take my time before i go under the ground
Oh dandelion tell me what you're thinking now
Shape i'm in i better get back home soon
I got one eye on the road and one eye on the big black moon
Dandelion won't you tell me what to do
Ironsides rusting in the railroad rain
Now i found out what the captain of the morning was saying
Dandelion better hope your mother's praying
Dumb luck is only the luck i ever knew
I'd make a wish but i don't think it'd ever come true
Dandelion i guess i'll leave it up to you
Belle starr she doesn't have any shoes
She walks crooked and paints her eyelids blue
Dandelion i wanna go there too
