Lorrie Morgan Lyrics
"She Walked Beside the Wagon"

She felt the cold and dreary wind
Chill her to the bone
Through the Oklahoma dust
Before there was a road
Determination on her face
And aching in her feet
With all hope gone
She still walked on
In to History.

She walked beside the wagon
And she held her head up high
If she walked beside the wagon
So can I
So can I.

Mama tells the story
How she watched it on T.V.
Jackie John and Caroline
And a nation on its knees
Six white horses pulled him home
In a wagon painted black
Jackie walked beside him though
He's not coming back.

She walked beside the wagon
And she held her head up high
If she walked beside the wagon
So can I
So can I.

Jesse's calling from the street
"Mommy, please come and see?"
A radio flier, fire red
"Mommy please pull me?"
I've been working over time
For a day like today
Making sure that Jesse knows
He can always say.

She walked beside the wagon
And she held her head up high
If she walked beside the wagon
So can I
So can I.

So can I.
So can I...
