Nevada Lyrics by Riders in the Sky

Prairie Serenade

1982

[Verse 1]
Nevada
(Nevada)
Silver and sagebrush
Nevada
(Nevada)
Gamblin' and gold rush
Land of space and sunshine
Rockin' sky
People who know her love Nevada and here's why
[Verse 2]
Nevada
(Nevada)
Ranches and ghost towns
Nevada
(Nevada)
Mountains with snow crowns
Rodeos and railroads
Wild rugged land
Deep night sky with stars like silver sand
[Verse 3]
Nevada
(Nevada)
Lake Mead and Tahoe
Nevada
(Nevada)
Vegas and Reno
Land of dusty deserts
Icy cold clear lakes
Mustangs and juniper trees and rattlesnakes
[Verse 4]
Nevada
(Nevada)
Silvеr and sagebrush
Nevada
(Nevada)
Gamblin' and gold rush
Thе highest, widest country
The brightest, the best
Nevada, the diamond of the west
[Verse 4 Reprise]
Nevada
(Nevada)
Silver and sagebrush
Nevada
(Nevada)
Gamblin' and gold rush
The highest, widest country
The brightest, the best
Nevada, the diamond of the west
