This song appears on seven albums, and was first released on the Farewell Andromeda Album, and Country Classics and The Country Roads Collection Albums. It has also been rerecorded on the Earth Songs, The John Denver Collection - Rocky Mountain High and The Very Best of John Denver (Single CD) Albums. A live version also appears on some of the An Evening With John Denver Albums.

Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberto
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
One is a teacher, and one a beginner
Just wanting to be there, wanting to know

And together theyre trying to tell us a story
That should have been listened to long, long ago
How 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 yesterdays 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 Rockys are living, they never will die
Up in a meadow in Jasper, Alberto
Two men and four ponies on a long, lonesome ride
