There's a young man that I know
His age is twenty one
Comes from down in southern Colorado
Just out of the service
And he's looking for his fun
Someday soon
Goin' with him someday soon

My parents cannot stand him
'Cause he rides the rodeo
My father says that he will leave me crying
I would follow him
Right down the toughest road I know
Someday soon
Goin' with him someday soon

Then when he comes to call my pa
Ain't got a good word to say
Guess it's 'cause he's just as wild in the younger days
So blow, you ol' blue northern
Blow my love to me

He's driving in tonight from California
He loves his damned old rodeo
As much as he loves me
Someday soon
Goin' with him someday soon
Then when he comes...
Someday soon
Goin' with him someday soon
