The Beaches of Cheyenne

They packed up all his buckles and shipped his saddle to his dad
And 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 livin' in the California sand
Died right there beside him in Cheyenne

They she just went crazy, screamin' 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

They never found her body, just her diary by the bed
It told about the fight they had and the words that she had said
When he told her he was ridin', she said, "Then I don't give a damn
If you never come back from Cheyenne"

They she just went crazy, screamin' 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've even claimed they've seen her on the shoreline late at night
'Cause 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
