F
Sweet Snow Deer mine, moon's a-shine through the pines
CF
While Mohawks sleep, let us creep through the vale
CF
Your cowboy lover, your heart will cover
C
Don't hesitate, it is late, ponies wait
FC
For you and me by the trees in the dale
BbF
Hear tom-toms beating, let's hit the trail
Chorus:
My pretty Snow Deer, say you will go, dear
Every trail leads to your heart
It's time to marry, no time to tarry
Let me carry you away from here
My sweet Snow Deer
The red men come, bullets hum, there'll be some
Left on the trail, I can't fail, cling to me
We'll crown the story with love and glory
Now after all must I fall, hear my call
And fly away while we may, can't you see
Those ranch lights gleaming, safe there we'll be
