It’s always been a dream of mine To walk down country roads with you With sunshine on my shoulders back home again to what I knew I grew up in the mountains The Rocky Mountains high Where every day was diamond Neath the wide Montana sky We all would visit grandma In a much loved old homestead Where grandpa played his old guitar To the kids in the feather bed The wings that fly us home Are the wings of love and joy When memory comes a-calling Thank God I’m a country boy
