[Verse 1]
Well I was working on the KCS Rail Line
Katie was the girl down the street
Well I took her to a dance
On the Fourth of July
Hoping she might fall in love with me
[Verse 2]
Well the band started playin' right at nine
Firecrackers popped in the sky
We danced and we danced
Lord, I never had a chance
Well I got canned on the Fifth of July
[Chorus]
And we laughed at the moonlight
I said "goodbye" in the gray light of dawn
Yes the girl of my dreams
Each and every night, it seems
Is the one that I hold in my arms
[Verse 3]
I was playin' in this tommyknocker tavern
Jenny was the girl at the bar
Well I sang every song
For her and her alone
And kissed her 'neath the Colorado stars
Well I was working on the KCS Rail Line
Katie was the girl down the street
Well I took her to a dance
On the Fourth of July
Hoping she might fall in love with me
[Verse 2]
Well the band started playin' right at nine
Firecrackers popped in the sky
We danced and we danced
Lord, I never had a chance
Well I got canned on the Fifth of July
[Chorus]
And we laughed at the moonlight
I said "goodbye" in the gray light of dawn
Yes the girl of my dreams
Each and every night, it seems
Is the one that I hold in my arms
[Verse 3]
I was playin' in this tommyknocker tavern
Jenny was the girl at the bar
Well I sang every song
For her and her alone
And kissed her 'neath the Colorado stars
