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
FAST AS WE CAN GO
over the hill to
Medicine Bow
