Jimmy Lafave - Snowin On Raton lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

When the wind don’t blow in Amarillo

The moon along the Gunnison don’t rise

Try to cast my dreams into your love babe

Just a lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

(Chorus)

Oh it’s nowin’ on Raton

Come mornin’ I’ll be throw them hills and gone

Snowin’ on Raton

Tomorow I’ll be throw them hills

(Verse)

Mamma thinks the road is long and lonely

And my brothers, they think the road is straight and fine

A little darlin’ thinks the road is soft and lovely

I’m thankful that ole road’s a friend of mine,

(Chorus)

(Verse)

Maybe years pass but you cannot steal them

You cannot turn the circles of the sun

You cannot count the miles ‘til you feel them

Cannot hold a lover that is gone,

(Chorus)

(Verse)

Tomorrow all the mountains will be sleepin’

Silent ‘neath the blanket greens and blue

But I will find the secret baby, they’ve been keepin’

And I’ll bring home, as I promises to you

(Chorus)
