VERSE 1:

My Nashville friends think I'm strange 
to make my home out on the range
Think it's nothin' but a God forsaken land

Why don't you bring your guitar and family, 
move on down to Tennesse
Well, I just smile because they don't understand

But if they ever saw a sunrise on a mountain mornin'
Watched those cotton candy clouds roll by
They'd know why I live beneath these Western Skies


VERSE 2:

I got peace of mind and elbow room I 
love the smell of sage in bloom
Catch a rainbow on my fishin' line

We got county fairs and rodeos, 
ain't a better place for my kids to grow
Just turn'm loose in the western summer time

And if you ever held your woman on a summer's evening
While the prairie moon was blazin' in her eyes
You'd know why I live beneath these Western Skies

BRIDGE:
You ain't lived until you've watched those Northern Lights
Set around the campfire and hear the coyotes call at night
Makes you feel alright


VERSE 3:

So guess I'll stay right where I'm at, 
wear my boots and my cowboy hat
But I'll come and see ya once in a while

I'll bring my guitar and sing my songs, 
sorry if I don't stay too long
I love Tennessee but ya know it's just not my style

I gotta be where I can see those Rocky Mountains
Ride my horse and watch an eagle fly
I gotta live my life and write my songs beneath these Western Skies


When I die you can bury me beneath these Western Skies, Yippee Yi
