lyrics

The crossing was hard
Oh how that rain had fallen
The stream swelled to swollen to burst
First went the young steer
Then snapped the wheel
The wagon washed down the Cheyenne

The plains wouldn't settle
Oh how them arrows found home
Winter struck early: catching us off-guard
The stock had to go
Oh how that baby did cry
The ice spread over the Cheyenne

We lost your mother then Little Sally Mae
We peppered our barley gruel with little dobs of clay
We lost your mother then Little Sally Mae

The mountains they loomed
Oh how the wolves they called
We lived with great horned owls
All sorts of claws
The living was risky
Even them kids grew hard
We named the youngest after the Cheyenne
