He packed everything he owned
On the back of that old pickup
And he gave up on this dream in Tennessee
I heard he took a job
On a ranch outside of Cody
He's been runnin' like those ponies, wild and free
No woman coulda stole him from me

Wyoming, Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming
What did I ever do to you?

I know he missed his rainbow fishin'
And those summer rodeos
'Cause he's been talkin' about a place out there for years
Or it coulda been the mountains
Or the wide open spacеs
That cowboy life he holds so dear
Hard as I triеd, I couldn't keep him here

Wyoming, Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming
What did I ever do to you?

I pray a long cold winter
Will drive him back to me
Lord knows I'll be waiting
Right here in Tennessee

Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming, oh
What did I ever do to you?
What did I ever do to you?
