She Walked Beside The Wagon

She Walked Beside The Wagon - Lorrie Morgan

She felt the cold and prairie wind

Chill her to the bone

Through the Oklahoma dust

Before there was a road

Determination on her face and achin'

In her feet

With all hope gone she still

Walked on in to history

She walked beside the wagon

And she held her head up high

If she walked beside the wagon

So can I so can I

Mama tells the story

She watched it on TV

Jackie John and Caroline and

A nation on its knees

Six white horses pulled him home

In a wagon painted black

Jackie walked beside him knowing

He's not coming back

She walked beside the wagon

And she held her head up high

If she walked beside the wagon

So can I so can I

Jesse's calling from the street

Oh mommy please come and see

A radio flier fire red

Mommy please pull me

I've been working over time for

A day just like today

Making sure that Jesse knows

He can always say

She walked beside the wagon

And she held her head up high

If she walked beside the wagon

So can I so can I

So can I so can I
