Packed up all his buckles
and shipped his saddle
to his dad
By the way
the house looked
she must have took it bad
The workers come on Monday
to fix the door
and patch the wall
They say she just went crazy
the night she got the call
Well he was up in Wyoming
and drew a bull
no man could ride
He promised her
he'd turn out
Well it turned out
that he lied
And all the dreams
that they'd been living
in the California sand
died right there beside him
in Cheyenne
They say she just went crazy
screaming out his name
She ran out into the ocean
and to this day they claim
that you can go down
by the water
and see her footprints
in the sand
'cause every night
she walks the beaches
of Cheyenne
They never found her body
just her diary by her bed
It talked about
the fight they had
and the words
that she had said
When he told her
he was riding
she said then
I don't give a damn
if you never come back
from Cheyenne
They say she just went crazy
screaming out his name
She ran out into the ocean
and to this day they claim
that if you go down
by the water
you'll see her footprints
in the sand
'cause every night
she walks the beaches
of Cheyenne
Nobody can explain it
some say she's still alive
They'd even claim
they've seen her
on the shoreline
late at night
If you go down
by the water
you'll see her footprints
in the sand
'cause every night
she walks the beaches
of Cheyenne
Yes every night
she walks the beaches
of Cheyenne
