Yellowhead to Yellowstone [German translation]

[Chorus]

Far away I hear the others callin'

the voice I hear in answer is my own

the first of winter's snows will soon be fallin'

I'm a long, long way from the Yellowhead

here in Yellowstone

Yellowstone.

[Chorus]

We travel light

whatever we could smuggle through the night

running from the rangers who pursued us

giving them another day to lose us

then we'd be free

as wild as we were ever meant to be

but they'd been closing in when they caught us

from the Yellowhead to Yellowstone they brought us

then let us go

we fled the only cage we'd ever know

hungry for a kill that would sustain us

but wary of that paradise they gave us.

[Chorus]

The time had flown

from a yearling I was nearly fully grown

I'd been the timid one but now I was restless

and drawn towards the mystery beyond us

I lost my fear

the little reddish gray was waiting there

from the Yellowhead we'd both been taken prisoner

ah, we must have been intended for each other

we wintered well

Rosie's belly soon began to swell

she gave us three that spring on the Blacktail

she bore a dozen more along that same trail.

[Chorus]

Our pack was strong

we ruled the whole plateau we roamed along

the wolves from Druid Peak had kept their distance

but then the pack from Godey Creek attacked us

they came at dawn

before the dew was dry the fight was on

with tooth and nail we drove them from the Blacktail

ah, and Rosie fell among the bloody battle

my queen was gone

the awful price of what we'd bravely won

I led 'til they would let me lead no longer

I turned my tail and wished that I was younger.

[Chorus]

Now here I lie

alone beneath the wild Wyoming sky

I'll leave a line of northern blood behind me

and I close my eyes, by the time they find me

I'll be where my Rosie walks beside me.

[Chorus]
