I thought of hungry children
As I threw my half eat sandwich to the ground

Baloney just don't taste good
When last night's gettin´ on has got you down

My hard hat is gettin´ heavy
And I still got half a day's work left to go

I been thinking bout you honey
And I wonder how it is in Colorado

Last night I met a girl with
Easy ways that eased some memories in my mind

She said she loved the whole world
And for a while she put some love in mine

And though it's hot as fire out here
Sometimes at night it gets down mighty cold

I been thinking bout you honey
And I wonder how it is in Colorado

Oh I wonder how it is in Colorado
Lord I wish she'd call today
And though it's hot as fire out here
This ain´t sweat that´s running down my face

Did you read my letter honey
I wrote some things I thought you'd like to know

I been thinking bout you honey
And I wonder how it is in Colorado

I been thinking bout you honey
And I wonder how it is in Colorado
