Snowin` On Raton — текст песни (Robert Earl Keen)

Townes Van Zandt

When the wind don`t blow in Amarillo
When the moon along the Gunnison don`t rise
And I cast my dreams upon your love babe
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

Chorus:
Snowin` on Raton
Come morning I`ll be through them hills and gone
Snowin` on Raton
Come morning I`ll be through them hills and gone

Mother thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
Little darlin` thinks the road is soft and lovely
I`m thankful that ole road`s a friend of mine

(Repeat Chorus)

I`ll bid the years goodbye, you cannot steal them
You cannot turn the circles of the sun
You cannot count the miles until you feel them
You cannot hold a lover that is gone

(Repeat Chorus)

Tomorrow the mountains will be sleepin`
Silent �neath the blanket green and blue
And I shall hear the silence they are keepin`
And I`ll bring all their promises to you

(Repeat Chorus)
