North Dakota Lyrics

The song North Dakota is performed by Lyle Lovett in the album named Joshua Judges Ruth in the year 1992 .



The boys from north dakota
They drink whisky for their fun
And the cowboys down in texas
They polish up their guns
And they look across the border
To learn the ways of love

If you love me, say I love you
If you love me, say I do
If you love me, say I love you
If you love me, say I do
And you can say I love you
And you can say I do

So I drank myself some whisky
And I dreamed I was a cowboy
And I rode across the border

If you love me, say I love you
If you love me, take my hand
If you love me, say I love you
If you love me, take my hand
And you can say I love you
And you can have my hand

I remember in the mornings
Waking up
With your arms around my head
You told me you can sleep forever
And I'll still hold you then

Now the weather's getting colder
It's even cold down here
And the words that you have told me
Hang frozen in the air
And sometimes I look right through them
As if they were not there

And the boys from north dakota
They drink whisky for their fun
And the cowboys down in texas
They polish up their guns
And they look across the border
To learn the ways of love
