Well, I have another one altogether that Don Edwards did on a CD I have. It's a regular part of my repertoire. and the words are:


PRAIRIE LULLABY
As recorded by Don Edwards on "Goin' Back to Texas" (1993)

When shadows creep across the hills,
And purple streaks the sky,
when cattle bunch up closer for the night...
That's when you hear the whipoorwill
Start singin' sweet and high,
That's when you'll hear the prairie lullaby.

The breezes play, the branches sway
Somewhere a coyote cries,
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.

When later on the sun is gone
The campfire fights the dark,
And a million stars are twinkling in the sky
That's when you see a cowboy reachin'
For his old mouth harp
That's when you'll hear the prairie lullaby

The breezes play the branches sway
And somewhere a coyote cries
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.
Ah ee oh loh di, it's a prairie lullaby.

I have the chords figured out -- somewhere -- if you want them.

Best, WyoWoman
