Far away I hear the others callin The voice I hear in answer is my own The first of winters snows will soon be fallin Im a long, long way from the Yellowhead Here in Yellowstone Yellowstone We travel light Whatever we could smuggle through the night Running from the rangers who pursued us Giving them another day to lose us Then wed be free As wild as we were ever meant to be But theyd been closing in when they caught us From the Yellowhead to Yellowstone they brought us Then let us go We fled the only cage wed ever know Hungry for a kill that would sustain us But wary of that paradise they gave us Far away I hear the others callin The voice I hear in answer is my own The first of winters snows will soon be fallin Im a long, long way from the Yellowhead Here in Yellowstone Yellowstone The time had flown From a yearling I was nearly fully grown Id been the timid one but now I was restless And drawn towards the mystery beyond us I lost my fear The little reddish gray was waiting there From the Yellowhead wed both been taken prisoner Ah, we must have been intended for each other We wintered well Rosies belly soon began to swell She gave us three that spring on the Blacktail She bore a dozen more along that same trail Far away I hear the others callin The voice I hear in answer is my own The first of winters snows will soon be fallin Im a long, long way from the Yellowhead Here in Yellowstone Yellowstone Our pack was strong We ruled the whole plateau we roamed along The wolves from Druid Peak had kept their distance But then the pack from Godey Creek attacked us They came at dawn Before the dew was dry the fight was on With tooth and nail we drove them from the Blacktail Ah, and Rosie fell among the bloody battle My queen was gone The awful price of what wed bravely won I led til they would let me lead no longer I turned my tail and wished that I was younger Far away I hear the others callin The voice I hear in answer is my own The first of winters snows will soon be fallin Im a long, long way from the Yellowhead Here in Yellowstone Yellowstone Now here I lie Alone beneath the wild Wyoming sky Ill leave a line of northern blood behind me And I close my eyes, by the time they find me Ill be where my Rosie walks beside me Far away I hear the others callin The voice I hear in answer is my own The first of winters snows will soon be fallin Im a long, long way from the Yellowhead Here in Yellowstone Yellowstone
