|
When the wind donĄŻt blow in Amarillo
|
When the moon along the Gunnison donĄŻt rise
|
And I cast my dreams upon your love babe
|
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes
|
|
Chorus:
|
SnowinĄŻ on Raton
|
Come morning IĄŻll be through them hills and gone
|
SnowinĄŻ on Raton
|
Come morning IĄŻll be through them hills and gone
|
|
Mother thinks the road is long and lonely
|
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
|
Little darlinĄŻ thinks the road is soft and lovely
|
IĄŻm thankful that ole roadĄŻs a friend of mine
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
|
|
IĄŻll 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 sleepinĄŻ
|
Silent Ąźneath the blanket green and blue
|
And I shall hear the silence they are keepinĄŻ
|
And IĄŻll bring all their promises to you
|
|
(Repeat Chorus)
