Introd: I have been a rover I have walked alone; Hiked a hundred highways never found a home. Still in all I’m happy the reason is you see Once in a while along the way love’s been good to me. There was a girl in Denver before the summer storm; Oh her eyes were tender oh her arms were warm. And she could smile away the thun - der kiss away the rain Even though she’s gone away you won’t hear me complain I have been a rover I have walked alone; Hiked a hundred highways never found a home. Still in all I’m happy the reason is you see Once in a while along the way love’s been good to me. There was a girl in Portland. before the winter chill; We used to go a-courtin’ along October hill. And she could laugh away the dark clouds cry away the snow It seems like only yesterday as down the road I go. I have been a rover I have walked alone; Hiked a hundred highways never found a home. Still in all I’m happy the reason is you see Once in a while along the way love’s been good to me.
