John Denver - Rocky Mountain Suite (Cold Nights In Canada) Lyrics






Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta, two men and four ponies on a long lonesome ride
To see the high country and learn of her people
The ways that they lived there, the ways that they died
And one is a teacher and one a beginner just wanting to be there and wanting to know
And together they're trying to tell us a story that should have been listened to long, long ago

How the life in the mountains is living in danger from too many people, too many machines
And the time is upon us, today is forever, tomorrow is just one of yesterday's dreams
Cold nights in Canada and icy blue winds, the man and the mountains are brothers again
Clear waters are laughing, they sing to the skies. The Rockies are living, they never will die

Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta, two men and four ponies on a long lonesome ride
