[Lyric] Snowin on Raton (The Flatlanders)

[Verse 1]
When the wind don't blow in Amarillo
And the moon along the Gunnison don't rise
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love, babe?
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes

[Chorus]
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone

[Verse 2]
Well, Mama thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother says the road is straight and fine
Little darlin' thinks the road is soft and lovely
I'm just thankful this old road's a friend of mine

[Chorus]
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone

[Verse 3]
Well, bid the years goodbye, you cannot still them
You cannot turn the circles of thе sun
You cannot count the miles until you feel them
And you cannot hold a lovеr that is gone
[Chorus]
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone

[Verse 4]
Well, tomorrow, all the mountains will be sleepin'
All silent 'neath a blanket green and blue
Oh, but I shall hear the silence they are keepin'
And I'll bring all their promises to you

[Chorus]
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone
Come mornin', I'll be through them hills and gone
