Rock Springs To Cheyenne

Written by: Kip Attaway I don’t think that I’ll ever forget the winter of ‘72 It must have been the coldest year that I ever knew I left my home in Dallas to head out for Idaho Before I reached Colorado I hit three feet of snow Chorus: Singing Lord, let the wind blow you know I’m so cold Rock Springs to Cheyenne is a bad stretch I’ve been told 2 o’clock in the morning on Thanksgiving Day It’s a damn good thing I’m a God fearing man I’ve been forced to pray Yeah it’s a damn good thing I’m a God fearing man I’ve been forced to pray There’s a little dog riding by my side And he’s shivering just like me And Lord I’m kind of glad it’s dark outside Cause there really ain’t nothing to see I kinda wish I had a radio to take my mind off you I got my hands on the wheel of something that’s real And my fingers are turning blue Chorus I learned a lesson in Denver and again in San Antone There’s lies in California And you know the truth’s in Mountain Home How can you trust your brother, When you can’t even trust yourself And your love’s what keeps your woman From being with somebody else Chorus
