Western Skies Lyrics

The nashville friends think i'm strange to make my home out on the range

Think it's nothin but a God forsaken land

Why don't you bring your guitar and family, move on down to tennesse

Well, I just smile because they don't understand

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

Or watched those cotton candy clouds roll by

They'd 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, ain't 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 summer's evening

While the prairie moon was blazin in her eyes

Then you'd know why I live beneath these western skies

Bridge:

You ainât lived until you've watched those northern lights

Set around the campfire and hear the coyotes call at night

Makes you feel alright

Verse 3

So guess i'll stay right where i'm at, wear my boots and my cowboy hat

But i'll come and see ya once in a while

I'll bring my guitar and sing my songs, sorry if I don't stay too long

I love Tennessee but ya know it's 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
