From the recording Wings of the Morning
When our daughter was about 5 she helped Chappell write this sweet cowgirl song.
Lyrics
The Cowgirl & Her Horse
The river is blue, I can tell you, My Sweets,
The river is blue, I can tell you, My Sweets,
And the hillside is green,
That is all I can tell you, My Sweets.
The sun is yellow, I can tell you, My Sweets,
The sun is yellow, I can tell you, My Sweets,
And the clouds are high in the sky, I can tell you, My Sweets,
I can tell you, My Sweets.
That cowgirl and her horse
Head across the wide open plains,
To follow the trail of a wild horse
With tail flying and mane.
The roses are red, I can tell you, My Sweets,
The roses are red, I can tell you, My Sweets,
Like the heart that I painted for you,
I can tell you, My Sweets, I can tell you, My Sweets.
In the dark glows the moon, I can tell you, My Sweets,
In the dark glows the moon, I can tell you, My Sweets,
Like my love glows for you, that is all I can tell you, My Sweets.
I can tell you, My Sweets.
That cowgirl on her horse, I can tell you, My Sweets,
That cowgirl on her horse, I can tell you, My Sweets,
Caught that mustang like you caught my heart, I can tell you, My Sweets,
I can tell you, My Sweets.
