So many valleys, so many prairies, so many rivers
And the joy of the plains
The good luck, the bad luck
I came across cactuses, coyotes,
Wagon chains
And lots of ghosts
I ran down all the worlds
My boots crushed the dust,
The happy times and the pains
I braved a hundred dangers
I crossed the lands that are dear to the Cheyennes
I even disappointed the Sioux over this
Calamity Jane
I left so much behind
I abandoned my heart in the desert
I submitted my body to the storms
I bet on tomorrow
I burned my dollars at poker
I burned all my pendants
I pursued gangsters, terrors
At night on my horse, in the heat, without a fan
I came across preachers, heathens
Men with neither law nor soul
And a hero without flaw, without mistakes
That I love
Calamity Jane
So many valleys, so many prairies, so many rivers
And the joy of the plains
The good luck, the bad luck
If heaven gave me the dream gift of a new life
I would live mine again without hesitating
Calamity Jane
