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
