Higher Than A Hawk - Calamity Jane - Soundtrack Band, The Band Musical Cast

My heart is higher than a hawk

My love is deeper than a well

I’m thinkin' in a little while

My love and I’ll be doin' very well

An owl is givin' me the eye

The wind is blowin' me a kiss

I wouldn’t be at all surprised

If I were only dreamin' all of this

And when I strut about like a Sunny Jim

Dressed in yeller and red

Folks’ll shout, «Take a look at him!

He’s tetched in the head!»

I said that I would never fall

I laughed at others when they fell

And here I’m falling, higher than a hawk

And deeper than a well

And when we’re all rigged out like a birthday cake

Eyes’ll pop everywhere

Folks’ll shout, «Don't you think

They make a wonderful pair?»

I said that I would never fall

But if you promise not to tell

My love for you is higher than a hawk

And deeper than a well
