When the Bloom Is on the Sage

When the Bloom Is on the Sage - Bing Crosby (平克·勞斯)/The Foursome/John Scott Trotter's Frying Pan Five

When it's roundup time in Texas

And the bloom is on the sage

Then I long to be in Texas

Back a-ridin' on the range

Just to smell the bacon fryin'

When it's sizzlin' in the pan

Hear the breakfast horn in the early

Morn drinkin' coffee from a can

Just a-ridin' rockin' ropin' poundin'

Leather all day long

Just a-swayin' sweatin' swearin' listenin'

To a cowhand's song

How it beckons and I reckon

I would work for any wage

To be free again just to be again

Where the bloom is on the sage

When it's roundup time in Texas

And the bloom is on the sage

Then I long to be in Texas back a-ridin'

On the range

Just to smell the bacon fryin'

When it's sizzlin' in the pan

Hear the breakfast horn in the early morn

Drinkin' coffee from a can

Just a-ridin' rockin' ropin'

Poundin' leather all day long

Just a-swayin' sweatin' swearin'

Listenin' to a cowhand's song

How it beckons and I reckon

I would work for any wage

To be free again just to be again

Where the bloom is on the sage

Ridin' rockin' ropin'

Poundin' leather all day long

Just a-swayin' sweatin' swearin'

Listenin' to a cowhand's song

How it beckons and I reckon

I would work for any wage

To be free again just to be again

Where the bloom is on the sage
