Caroline,
In the mountains the sun sets up in ribbons so high, it's
like I don't never wanna get old...don't never wanna die.
We been seein' steady rain, 'bout to drive us all insane,
nearly lost a few head up in the pines. At night, when some
of the boys get to talking up their girls back home, you
know I tell 'em there ain't none as fine as mine. I can hear
old Chapman sayin' come morning we'll break the range,
be pushin' hard nowfor the plains.
I close my eyes an I can see you...I close my eyes an I can
feel you here. God willin'an the creek don't rise, I'll be
home again before this time next year. Though I fear this
fever won't break...
-All my love.
