Charles Goodnights' Grave

On the LLano Estacado

Not far from Amarillo

Big trucks roll and the wind blows

Mostly all of the time

Way out on the prairie

Wild rags flutter and the winds sigh

Over Charles Goodnight's graveBandanas blue and yellow

All the shades of Paladouro

Where they come from I do not know

Maybe riders on the wind

All along the fence line

Like some old time cowboy's shrine

Wild rags flutter and the winds sigh

Over Charles Goodnight's grave

If you ride for Amarillo

For to dance the wild Fandango

Out among the moon glow

Of the panhandle plain

Raise a toast to the legends

Of Goodnight and Loving

And the ones who hang the wild rags

Over Charles goodnight's grave
