Calamity Jane

Calamity Jane must compete with the vicious times
And the men that you meet
They built you up, tried to tear you down
But your life’s a crazy-go-round.
She rubbed her eyes as the day came clear
And found happiness with the men she was near
They said you were “sweet young and fair”
But your life turned west there
Deadwood’s in your stare.

Ch
Calamity Jane put your six guns away
Life will come ‘round the Black Hills again someday
Calamity Jane put your brave face away
Love will come ‘round with it’s honesty one day.

Calamity Jane shines her boots
You can grow with the girl but you must know her roots
Cause you brought it on and shouted loud
Shook the world and rocked the ground.
She loaded her guns and rode the trail
For the Pony express delivering mail
You had that wild west spark
Never missed your mark
From a coach or the dark.

Ch

You’re legend is side by side
With old Wild Bill and all of your pride
They built you up, couldn’t tear you down
You shook the world and rocked the ground
“The heroine of the plains”
Oh Martha Jane you’ve borne that name
They built you up, couldn’t tear you down
You shook the world and rocked the ground
Calamity Jane rest in peace
Cause the wild wild west has lost it’s lease
You built it up and tore it down
And shook the world and rocked the, rocked the, rocked the ground.
