Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Take Me Back to Colorado fer to Stay
Growing up my father taped this song off the radio and then he recorded over most of it but I heard part of it over and over so I remember it well. As I recall what is listed here as the second verse was presented as the first because that was cut off in the middle by another recording.
Here is the part I remember:

When I heard the people callin, he's a fallin', he's a fallin!
And I woke up with my feet out cold and bare.
Cold and Bare, Cold and Bare;
Can you 'magine what an awful, awful scare?
When I heard the people callin' he's a fallin' he's a fallin'
And I woke up with my feet out Cold and Bare.

Yesterday I bought an old machine, filled it up with gasoline,
Cranked it and it nearly got away.

That is all that was left on the tape. Thanks for filling in some of the gaps. Someone else out there must have a copy.
