 (c.w. mccallbill frieschip davis)



One coldblack night of a colorado winter

It snowed on red mountain pass

We warned ev'rybody that the slide was runnin'

An' 5-5-oh was a mess

But outta the plowshedsouth a' town

Come a blade with a flashin' blue light

We told that boy: "whatever you do

Beware of the riverslide slide."



Now that plow-jockey knew he had a job to do

Been dodgin' them slides for years

But we all knewdeep down inside

He was livin' with a thing called fear

'cause you don't mess around with an avalancheson

A lotta men triedand died

Yeahyou get them plows past bear creek falls

You lookin' at the riverside slide



Now all a' us folks around ouray county

Seen a lotta them coldblack nights

When the only thing movin' is a big ol' plow

Flashin' them weird blue lights

You drive them snowplows around these parts

You gotta have a real thick hide

'cause ya never quite know what time a' the night

You gonna die in the riverside slide



Wellit snowed six feet on the mountain that night

An' we knew what was comin' on down

An' so did the boy an' his flashin' blue light

When he rolled that blade outta town

Wellhe took that plow up 5-5-oh

An' he felt it lean to one side

An' before he knew ithe was buried alive

At the bottom of the riverside slide



Yeahall a' us folks around ouray county

Seen a lotta them coldblack nights

When the only thing movin' is a big ol' plow

Flashin' them weird blue lights

We found the boy in the early spring

Still settin'the plow on it's side

Yeahya never quite know what time a' the night

You gonna die in the riverside slide
