Snowin' On Raton

Townes Van Zandt

When the wind don?t blow in Amarillo

When the moon along the Gunnison don?t rise

And I cast my dreams upon your love babe

And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

Chorus:

Snowin? on Raton

Come morning I?ll be through them hills and gone

Snowin? on Raton

Come morning I?ll be through them hills and gone

Mother thinks the road is long and lonely

Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine

Little darlin? thinks the road is soft and lovely

I?m thankful that ole road?s a friend of mine

(Repeat Chorus)

I?ll 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 sleepin?

Silent ?neath the blanket green and blue

And I shall hear the silence they are keepin?

And I?ll bring all their promises to you

(Repeat Chorus)
