I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a homeStill in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to meThere was a girl in Denver
Before the summer storm
Oh, her eyes were tender
Oh, her arms were warmAnd she could smile away the thunder
Kiss away the rain
And even though she's gone away
You won't hear me complainI have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a homeStill in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to meThere was a girl in Portland
Before the winter chill
We used to go a-courtin'
Along October hillAnd she could laugh away the dark clouds
Cry away the snow
It seems like only yesterday
As down the road I goI've been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a homeStill in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while along the way
Love's been good to me
