Thread Name: Origins: Someday Soon (Ian Tyson) lyrics meaning
Subject: Lyr Add: SOMEDAY SOON (Ian Tyson)
I think this is the lyric I&S sang:

There's a young man that I know, just turned twenty-one,
He comes from down in southern Colorado.
Just out of the service and lookin' for his fun;
Someday soon, goin' with him, someday soon.

My parents can not stand him 'cause he works the rodeo;
They say, "He's not your kind; he'll leave you cryin'."
But if he asks I'll follow him down the toughest row to hoe;
Someday soon, goin' with him someday soon.

When he visits me, my Pa ain't got one good word to say;
Got a hunch he was as wild back in the early days.

So blow, you old Blue Norther, blow him back to me;
He's likely drivin' back from California.
He loves his damned old rodeo as much as he loves me;
Someday soon, goin' with him, someday soon
