I have been a rover,
I have walked a-lone.
Hiked a hundred highways,
Never found a home.
Still and all I'm happy.
The reason is, you see,
Once in a while a-long the way,
Love's been good to me.
There was a girl in Denver
Before the summer storm.
Oh, her eyes were tender,
Oh, her arms were warm.
And she could smile away the thunder,
Kiss away the rain.
And even though she's gone away,
You won't hear me com - plain.
I have been a rover,
I have walked a-lone.
Hiked a hundred highways,
Never found a home.
Still and all I'm happy.
The reason is, you see,
Once in a while a-long the way,
Love's been good to me.
There was a girl in Portland,
Before the winter chill.
We used to go a-courtin'
Along October Hill.
And she could laugh away the dark clouds,
Cry away the snow.
It seems like on - ly yesterday,
As down the road I go.
I have been a rover,
I have walked a-lone.
Hiked a hundred highways,
Never found a home.
Still and all I'm happy.
The reason is, you see,
Once in a while a-long the way,
Love's been good to me.
