Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta Two men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride To see the high country and learn of her people The ways that they live there, the ways that they die And one is a teacher, one a beginner Just wanting to be there, wanting to know And together they're trying to tell us a story That should have been listened to long, long ago Now the life in the mountains is living in danger From too many people, too many machines And the time is upon us, today is forever Tomorrow is just one of yesterday's dreams Cold nights in Canada and icy blue winds The man and the mountains are brothers again Clear waters are laughing, they sing to the skies The Rockies are living, they never will die Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberta Two men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride
