Jimmie Dale Gilmore - Goodbye Old Missoula lyrics

rate me

Seaching for the sunlight

On this winter's day.

Here in old Missoula,

They locked the sun away.

Come tomorow morning

I'll head for the Bozeman round

And it's goodbye to old Missoula, sleepy town.

I met a girl named Rosie,

Sweet as she could be.

But I guess that Rosie

Didn't have eyes for me.

Time it waits for no-one

Lord, why did I hesitate?

And it's goodbye to old Missoula, a day too late.

Clouds that hang on the mountain

They make me lonesome inside.

And these four walls that surround me

They leave me no place to hide.

The show in this town is over

Or maybe it never began

And it's goodbye to old Missoula, I've done all I can.

Goodbye, Rosie - you'll never know

And time says my love will pass

But if I can remember your smiling face

That's all of time that I ask

The show in this town is over

Or maybe it never began

And it's goodbye to old Missoula, I've done all I can.

Goodbye to old Missoula,

Goodbye to old Missoula,

Goodbye to old Missoula, sleepy town.
