It Happened In Sun Valley - Glenn Miller

In the valley of the sun I've met my only one While rolling down the lovely desert trail Navy air is on the sky I saw that cuty-pie There she was so sweet and so friendly Her eyes like were the velvet stars That show from up above All i took was just one look I knew that this was really love Now my life has just begun The two of us are one Spending all our days In the valley of the sun

Something done bit me on the back of the neck And I got a strange feelin' ain't seen nothin' yet Well my face is on fire - sweat burnin' my eyes Misery's coming and i'm fixing to die I'll be eatin' humble pie when the sun goes down Pullin' up my pants take a look around I can see 100 miles to the north and south Can't make enough spit just to wet my mouth I'm alone Nobody standin' by me I'm feelin' dry as the breeze Nowhere to fill my canteen My bones are laughing at me You can call me well done Nothin's rusting my guns In the the valley of the sun The river stopped flowin' just a runnin' sand And the devil starts laughin' this is his land Blisters start to bleed up and down my hands Hyde wearin' tough enough for takin' a brand Rats are gettin' hungry and I'm lookin' brown Ground's too hot so I can't sit down Rattlesnakes are twitchin' and a wigglin' away My last drop of water - this is one bad day Navarrone Should of been there by now 'Cuz Texas Pete is in town He's roundin' up all my cows Feel like I'm lettin' him down My horse is dead on the ground She couldn't handle the run In the valley of the sun And I ain't havin' no fun In the the valley of the sun

This is not a parable This is a terrible This is a terrible thing. Yes I will rhyme that after, After all I've done today I have earned my wings It happened today. Hooray! Hooray! It happened. Hip, hip, hooray! We'll leave the allegory To another Bible story Out of deference, defiance, and choice. And close in on a promise After all I've done today I have earned my voice It happened today. Hooray! Hooray! It happened. Hip, hip, hooray! Oh...
