High Plains, walking all alone on the High Plains The wind blowing so hard I can't stand it The woman on my mind and the bottle in my hand Are the only things I know that can get me off these High Plains Blue Norther, blowing up the dust and making such a fuss Can't think about nothing but a hot meal and cold beer Warm bed and a warmer woman Feeling fine, about damn time, finally got off them High Plains When you're out on your own, so far away from home Walking a road that feels like nobody's ever trod People always say tomorrow will be a better day But I don't think they ever felt this way, no way Keepin' on, movin' through the West like the C&O Chuggin' along, chuggin' mucho dong Think them things must grow on trees But nobody, likes it better than me
