Take me back to dream again By a campfire on the trail By a campfire on the trail When day is done Let me smell that chaparral Let me join my saddle pals By a campfire on the trail When day is done I remember days gone by Underneath the prairie sky How we'd gather 'round the campfire every night With our fiddles and guitars We would serenade the stars In the shadows of the campfire's fading light Take me back to dream again By a campfire on the trail By a campfire on the trail When day is done Let me smell that chaparral Let me join my saddle pals By a campfire on the trail When day is done I'll make my bed and rest Beneath the western sky And tell the moon above as he goes rollin' by Just how happy and how free He and I will always be By a campfire on the trail When day is done
