Well I miss being in Montana
Where I can wear my hat
I can run around and go fishin'
And I can fight a bear
Then one day I'll go to school
In my little one room schoolhouse
Well when you're in Montana
Night-time's quiet as a mouse
Montana
Montana
Montana, that's where I wanna be
Montana
Montana
Ooh yeah, Montana it's so green
Well the wind don't get more crisper
The land don't get more fair
I can hear the whisper
Of teardrops in the air
Smell horses leaves and trees
Couldn't leave this land behind
Well if it ain't Montana
Then it ain't no land of mine
Montana
Montana
Montana, that's where I wanna be
Montana
Montana
Ooh yeah Montana it's so green

The road is long and hard for a cowboy
Lookin' at the road wondering when it's gonna change
Ride by night I'll sleep when the dead walk
Climbing o'er the mountains and I'm crossin' through the plains
The weather outside is cold
The weather inside ain't warm
But I wanna get back to that place
Into your lovin' arms
The road is long and hard for a cowboy
Lookin' at the road wonderin' when it's gonna change
Miles of pine it's steep but I can't stop
Lookin' from below and wonderin' when it's gonna change
When's it ever gonna change?

Maybe the birds don't sing in the same way
As when I grew up
When did the skies all darken a half shade
Well I miss the sun
I feel those gray days they're getting cold
The world is ending or so I am told
Or maybe beauty's a young man's game
And I'm getting old
Baby my world don't spin in the the same way
Since I met you
Livin' that hazy summer on replay
Say you do too?
I see those rain clouds, they're getting bold
Those days are ending, or so I'm told
Or maybe beauty's a young man's game
And I'm gettin' old
I put on 3D glasses to see if they help
I guess life ain't a movie
Passin' time like molasses and readin' self help
While the date rushes through me
But I feel those gray days they're getting cold
The world is ending or so I am told
Or maybe beauty's a young man's game
And I'm getting old

It Reminded Me Of You

Don't know if I was dreamin' or if drink had done me wrong
But I swear that what I say to you is true
It's all a little fuzzy, and big chunks of time are gone
Everything was good 'til I began to snooze
Next thing I know I had awoke to a pair of glossy eyes
The test injected, prod and poked
'Til my brain had puckered dry
My name my occupation, of it all I had no clue
But when they stuck that probe in me
It reminded me of you
They looked a little funny, eyeballs wide and fingers long
I tried to tell 'em one plus one is two
They didn't seem to care, no they just moved me right along
Strapped me down made me breath some nasty fumes
Next thing I know I had awoke to a pair of glossy eyes
The test injected, prod and poked
'Till my brain had puckered dry
My name my occupation, of it all I had no clue
But when they stuck that probe in me
It reminded me of you

Would you really do this to me
Would you really do this
How could you do this
Well I tried to tell you
But you wouldn't stop the war
Pick up the pieces, hey
You've been there before, no
And not only recently
I think you meant to say
Kathleen
Would you really do this to me
Would you really do this
How could you do this
Well my head is spinnin'
And I'm shakin' like a spring
If there's an earthquake, well
I won't feel a thing
I'm disconnecting
Can't stand another ring, no
Kathleen
Would you really do this to me
Would you really do this to me

Lord knows I been lonely
Three years to the day
My friends say that time heals all wounds
But this bottle's the only thing that numbs the pain
So I think
Is this something I asked for
Did some star show the way
The Lord gives, but oh does he take
And I'm not so sure that I won't
Burst through those gates
As I think to myself
On this cold winter's night
And I notice that when I'm alone
The moon don't look right
So I prayed and I bargained
I tried my hand at hate
I denied 'til my tears they ran dry
Well then why does acceptance feel so far away
As I sit to myself
On this beautiful night
And I notice that when I'm alone
The moon don't look right

Heartbreak, TX

One day's ride from Louisiana
Just north of the sea
Lies a town called Heartbreak, Texas
I should have believed
She was like a fire in darkness
I ran towards the flames
One full night of burning passion
Then she spoke her name
I said Heartbreak's no place for a cowboy
So I'm riding out with the wind
I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake
Now I won't see Heartbreak again
Her cries they follow me like shadows
Her wrath like a chain
I still feel that loathsome sorrow
When she cursed my name
On forgotten roads you'll find me
In fear of her claim
Saddled up, forever riding
In tears since the day when I said
Heartbreak's no place for a cowboy
So I'm riding out with the wind
I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake
Now I won't see Heartbreak again
No, heartbreak's no place for a cowboy
So I'm riding out with the wind
I'll follow it straight, true love in my wake
Now I won't see Heartbreak again
