Them Out of Staters

All them foreigners that move here they always tell me that they've come To search for open spaces ‘cause cities made ‘em feel so numb They came out here to Montana to a place where they could feel free To bulldoze out the pristine streams and chop down the Aspen trees To tear away the lodge pole pine ponderosas and tamarack Dig away the mountain side and cram their houses back to back They flatten out the rolling hills to build a shopping mall or two Built all them buildings so damn tall their blocking out the mountain view They've taken all the wildflowers and laid down asphalt and cement Put solar panels on their roofs 'cause that’ll save the environment Should a deer wander into town they want the law to do the deed Because having wild critters around is something that they just don't need They say that they feel better now with all the beauty they can see Just sitting in their sealed off rooms watchin' nature shows on TV
