Western Skies — текст песни (Chris Ledoux)

The nashville friends think im strange to make my home out on the range



Think its nothin? but a God forsaken land

Why dont you bring your guitar and family, move on down to tennesse

Well, I just smile because they dont understand

But if they ever saw a sunrise on a mountain mornin?

Watched those cotton candy clouds roll by

Theyd know why I live beneath these western skies



Verse 2



I got peace of mind and elbow room I love the smell of sage in bloom

Catch a rainbow on my fishin? line

We got county fairs and rodeos, aint a better place for my kids to grow



Just turn em loose in the western summer time

And if you ever held your woman on a summers evening

While the prairie moon was blazin? in her eyes

Youd know why I live beneath these western skies





Bridge:

You aint lived until youve watched those northern lights

Set around the campfire and hear the coyotes call at night

Makes you feel alright





Verse 3



So guess ill stay right where im at, wear my boots and my cowboy hat

But ill come and see ya once in a while

Ill bring my guitar and sing my songs, sorry if I dont stay too long

I love tennessee but ya know its just not my style

I gotta be where I can see those rocky mountains

Ride my horse and watch an eagle fly

I gotta live my life and write my songs beneath these western skies





When I die you can bury me beneath these western skies, yippee
