Lyrics
SWEET MONTANA HOME
David Walburn © 2004
VERSE A Well I?ve been working up on the highline
Trying to makes some money to get back home
But my horse is hurt and I?m tired of walking
But I know it won?t be long
CHORUS Cause I?ve got blue skies all the way to Missoula
Clark Fork river just a leading me on
I got blue skies all the way to Missoula
My Sweet Montana Home
VERSE A Well the bridge washed out on the Rock Creek crossing
And there ain?t no getting around
So I?m gonna saddle up a rainbow trout
And ride this river on down
CHORUS (Repeat)
Sweet Montana Home just around the bend
Mountains open wide and welcome be back in
I?ve got blue skies all the way to Missoula
My Sweet Montana Home
VERSE A I was riding high up in the saddle
When the wave came crashing down
That trout bucked me up so high
I landed in the middle of town
CHORUS (Repeat)
