Lyrics
(
Mike Scott & Anthony Thistlethwaite)there's a black wind blowinga typhoon on the risepummelin rainmurderous skies!I'm gonna take my books
I'm gonna wear my coat
I'm gonna find my scarfand wrap it around my throatand you can
Come with methru the drivin snowwe're gonna ride on up to
Medicine Bowwell I spent too longjust stuck on the shorethere's a man in my headbut he isn't me any more
I'm gonna find me a shipstowaway on a boat
I'm gonna burn all the wordsand letters and cards that I ever wroteand you can
Sail with mewhere the current flowswe're gonna move on up to
Medicine Bow
I'm gonna change my colourscancel my thingsstop my squawkingrow some wings!well I will not sleepand I will not rest
I will put my souland my will to the test
I'm gonna tug at my tether
I'm gonna tear on my lead
I'm gonna test my knowledgein the field of deedsand you can
Run with mefast as we can goover the hills to
Medicine Bow
