♬ Lyrics

Oh oh… Colorado, vlieg met me mee naar Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, over de zee naar Colorado
Oh… Colorado, Colorado
De dollar is nu niet meer zo duur
Ga je mee de oversteek maken
Naar een leven vol van avontuur?
De rivieren zitten vol vis
Met een wilde beer op de foto
Colorado, Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, vlieg met me mee naar Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, over de zee naar Colorado
Oh… Colorado, Colorado
We kopen snel een tweedehands paard
Samen heel de dag in het zadel
Denk aan de benzine die je spaart
In de ѕterrennacht bij het vuur
In je armen lig ik te dromen
Colorado, Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, vlieg met me mee naar Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, over de zee naar Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, vlieg met me mee naar Colorado
Oh oh… Colorado, over de zee naar Colorado
Oh… Colorado, Colorаdo
