Lyrics Ride Away - Slim Whitman

"Ride Away" as performed by Slim Whitman

Ride Away
Ride Away
With a song in your heart
Don't look back
I don't want you to know how I feel
Ride Away with a song in your heart
For I know that your love
Can never be real.
Oh no little darlin'
No way can I say what
Your careless lovin' can do
Now that your leavin'
Your leavin' a grievin'
Heart that you have
Broken in two.
Its to late
Little darlin' for you
To atone for a love
I thought I once knew.
I'll hitch up your buckboard
And hand you the reins
For I know that
Your love isn't true.
Now I'm a wrangler
And I ride all alone
With a shepherd dog
Here at my side.
Only he and my pinto
And the breezes that
Broken heart strings
Are tied.

Oh the nights aren't
So lonely when the cattle
Lie down and the doggy's sad
Eyes look my way.
They seem to echo
The sadness my heart knows
And I wonder who is lost
More me or day.
Ride Away with a song in your heart
Don't look back I don't want you
To know how I feel.
Ride Away with a song in your heart
For I know that your love
Can never be real.
Ride Away
Ride Away
Your love can never be real.
