Rocky Mountain Suite (Cold Nights in Canada) (Live at the Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles, CA - August/September 1974) - John Denver

Up in a meadow in Jasper Alberta

Two men and four ponies on a long lonesome ride

To see the high country and learn of her people

The ways that they lived there the ways that they died

And one is a teacher one a beginner

Just wanting to be there and wanting to know

And together they're trying to tell us a story

That should have been listened to long long ago

Now the life in the mountains is living in danger

From too many people too many machines

And the time is upon us today is forever

Tomorrow is just one of yesterday's dreams

Cold nights in Canada and icy blue winds

The man and the mountains are brothers again

Clear waters are laughing they sing to the sky

The Rockies are living they never will die

Up in a meadow in Jasper Alberta

Two men and four ponies on a long lonesome ride
