[G] – – – – – ​​​​SomeDay Soon, Judy Collins

There’s a young girl that I know, her age is twenty one.
Comes from down in southern Colorado.
I’m just out of the service and I’m lookin‘ for my fun.
Someday soon, she’s goin‘ with me, someday soon.

Her parents cannot stand me, ’cause I ride the rodeo.
Her father says that I will leave her cryin,
But I would follow her right down the roughest road I know
Someday soon, she’s goin‘ with me, someday soon

And when I come to call,

Her Pa ain’t got a good word to say.
Guess it’s ’cause he was just as wild,

In his younger days.

So blow you ol’ blue northern, blow my love to me.
I’m drivin’ in tonight from California.
I love that damned ol’ rodeo as much as she loves me.
Someday soon, she’s goin‘ with me, someday soon.
