Lyrics
Goodbye Colorado, goodbye Arizon'
Saying farewell to Colorado and Arizona
Goodbye Nevada, goodbye New Mexico
Parting with Nevada and New Mexico
God bless the west and Texas
Expressing blessings for the western states, especially Texas
Yes you know I'll miss you so
Acknowledging that the departure will be missed
But it's goodbye Colorado, boys I'm headed home
Reiterating the farewell to Colorado and indicating a return home
Well I've seen miles and miles of beautiful country
Reflecting on the vast and beautiful landscapes witnessed during the journey
Friends I hate to leave
Expressing reluctance to leave friends behind
But those northern reaches beckon me
Feeling drawn to the northern regions despite the emotional difficulty of leaving
Even as we speak
Indicating a decision being made in the present moment
So it's goodbye Colorado, goodbye Arizon'
Repeating the farewell to Colorado and Arizona
Goodbye Nevada, goodbye New Mexico
Repeating the parting with Nevada and New Mexico
God bless the west and Texas
Reiterating blessings for the western states, especially Texas
Yes you know I'll miss you so
Reaffirming the acknowledgment of missing the departed places
But it's goodbye Colorado, boys I'm headed home
Restating the departure from Colorado and the journey homeward
Well I won't be comin' round much more
Declaring a reduced frequency of future visits
I bid you all farewell
Bidding farewell to everyone
Perhaps we may meet up again
Suggesting the possibility of meeting again in the future
On further down the trail
Referencing the continuation of the journey down the trail
Well it occurs to me before I go
Realizing there is one more stop to make before departing
I've one more stop to make
Expressing the intention to make a final stop
I have some time and after all
Noting the availability of time for an additional activity
How long could one kiss take?
Humorously contemplating the duration of a farewell kiss
Goodbye Colorado, goodbye Arizon'
Repeating the farewell to Colorado and Arizona
Goodbye Nevada, goodbye New Mexico
Repeating the parting with Nevada and New Mexico
God bless the west and Texas
Reiterating blessings for the western states, especially Texas
Yes you know I'll miss you so
Reaffirming the acknowledgment of missing the departed places
But it's goodbye Colorado, boys I'm headed home
Concluding the farewell to Colorado and confirming the journey homeward
