Roy Rogers and Dale Evans – Happy Trails Live lyrics
Happy trails to you, until we meet again
Happy trails to you, keep smilin’ until then
Who cares about the clouds when we’re together?
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather
Happy trails to you, ‘till we meet again
Some trails are happy ones
Others are blue
It’s the way you ride the trail that counts
Here’s a happy one for you
Happy trails to you, until we meet again
Happy trails to you, keep smilin’ until then
Who cares about the clouds when we’re together?
Just sing a song and bring the sunny weather
Happy trails to you, ‘till we meet again
[Additional verse, not included in airplay version:]
Happy trails to you, it’s great to say «hello»
And to share with you the trail we’ve come to know
It started on the day that we met Jesus
He came into our hearts and then he freed us
For a life that’s true, a happy trail to you
GENIUS
