I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a way
Still, in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while, along the way
Love's been good to me
There was a girl in Denver
Before the summer storm
And oh, her eyes were tender
And oh, her arms were warm
And she could smile away the thunder
And kiss away the rain
Even though she's gone away
You won't hear me complain
I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a way
Still, in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while, along the way
Love's been good to me
There was a girl in Portland
Before the winter chill
We used to be a-courting
Along October Hill
And she could laugh away the dark clouds
And cry away the snow
It seems like only yesteryear
As down the road I go
I have been a rover
I have walked alone
Hiked a hundred highways
Never found a way
Still, in all I'm happy
The reason is, you see
Once in a while, along the way
Love's been good to me
