My old man had a round of soul
Hed hear an old freight train
Then hed have to go
Said hed been blessed with a gypsy bone
Thats the reason they guessed
Hed been cursed to roam
Came into town back before the war
Didnt even know what it
Was he was looking for
He carried a tattered bag for his violin
It was full of lots of songs
Of places he had been
He talked real easy
Had a smiling way to pass abn^. to you
When his fiddle played
Making people drop their cares and woes
To hum out loud those tunes
That his fiddle howed
Till the people there began to join that sound
And everyone in town was
Laughing, singing, dancing round
Like the fiddlers tune was
All the years that passed
That love would keep them warm
All their lives theyd share
A dream come true
All because she danced while his fiddle tuned
My old man had a round of soul
Hed hear an old freight train
Then hed have to go
All that I recall said when I was young
No one else could really
Sing those songs he sung

John Denver, pseudonimo di Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. (1943-1997), è stato un cantautore e musicista statunitense profondamente legato al genere folk rock. Nato a Roswell, nel New Mexico, Denver ha trascorso la sua infanzia tra il Colorado e l'Arizona, influenzato dalla bellezza naturale del paesaggio occidentale americano che spesso trovava ispirazione nelle sue canzoni. Dopo aver studiato musica al college, si è trasferito a Denver, Colorado, dove ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale suonando in locali e festival folk. Nel 1970 ha firmato un contratto discografico con RCA Records e ha pubblicato il suo album di debutto, "Poems, Prayers and Promises", che ha riscosso un grande successo. Denver è diventato famoso per le sue melodie orecchiabili, i testi poetici e la sua voce calda e rassicurante. I suoi brani più famosi includono "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Annie's Song" e "Rocky Mountain High". La sua musica ha spesso celebrato la natura, l'amore per la famiglia e il desiderio di pace e armonia. Oltre alla musica, Denver si è impegnato in diverse cause ambientaliste e umanitarie, diventando un simbolo di speranza e positività per milioni di persone in tutto il mondo.
