The West is in My Soul

 (Bob Nolan)

 

I’m glad I was born in the heart of the west.

The west is in my soul.

I’m glad that I’m livin’ where life’s at its best,

The best old ranges roll.

Because I’m up with the lark at the break of each dawn,

I ride till the sun turns gold.

In the sky he always was and he always will because

The west is in my soul!

 

Lordy, but I’m feelin’ mighty happy.

Do you wonder why I feel this way?

Everywhere I turn my eyes, the West is.

That is why I’m here to say…

 

I’m glad I was born in the heart of the west.

The west is in my soul.

I’m glad that I’m livin’ where life’s at its best,

The best old ranges roll.

Because I’m up with the lark at the break of each dawn,

I ride till the sun turns gold.

In the sky he always was and he always will because

The west is in my soul!

 

I’m up with the lark at the break of each dawn,

I ride till the sun turns gold.

In the sky he always was and he always will because

The west is in my soul!
