Medicine Bow

Intro: (x4)


There s a black wind blowing... a typhoon on the rise...

Pummeling rain... murderous skies!

I m gonna take my books... I m gonna wear my coat...

I m gonna find my scarf... and wrap it around my throat...

And you can come with me... through the driving snow

We re gonna ride on up to... Medicine Bow




Well I spent too long... just stuck on the shore...

There s a man in my head... but he isn t me anymore...

I m gonna find me a ship... stowaway on a boat...

I m gonna burn all the words and letters and cards that I ever wrote

And you can sail with me... where the current flows

We re gonna move on up to... Medicine Bow




I m gonna change my colours... cancel my things...

Stop my squawking... grow some wings!

Well I will not sleep... and I will not rest...

I will put my soul... and my will to the test...

I m gonna tug at my tether... I m gonna tear at my lead...

I m gonna test my knowledge... in the field of deeds...

And you can run with me... as fast as we can go

Over the hill to... Medicine Bow
