[Verse 1: Jo Smith]
He packed everything he owned
On the back of that old pickup
And he gave up on this dream in Tennessee
I heard he took a job
On a ranch outside of Cody
He's been runnin' like those ponies, wild and free
No woman coulda stole him from me
[Chorus: Jo Smith, Jo Smith & Vince Gill]
Wyoming, Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming
What did I ever do to you?
[Verse 2: Jo Smith, Jo Smith & Vince Gill]
I know he missed his rainbow fishin'
And those summer rodeos
'Cause he's been talkin' about a place out there for years
Or it coulda been the mountains
Or the wide open spacеs
That cowboy life he holds so dear
Hard as I triеd, I couldn't keep him here
[Chorus: Jo Smith & Vince Gill, Jo Smith]
Wyoming, Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming
What did I ever do to you?
[Bridge: Jo Smith, Jo Smith & Vince Gill]
I pray a long cold winter
Will drive him back to me
Lord knows I'll be waiting
Right here in Tennessee
[Chorus: Jo Smith, Jo Smith & Vince Gill]
Wyoming
Why did your skies have to be so blue?
Wyoming, Wyoming, oh
What did I ever do to you?
What did I ever do to you?
