Intro: (x4)
There s a black wind blowing... a typhoon on the rise...
Pummeling rain... murderous skies!
I m gonna take my books... I m gonna wear my coat...
I m gonna find my scarf... and wrap it around my throat...
And you can come with me... through the driving snow
We re gonna ride on up to... Medicine Bow
Well I spent too long... just stuck on the shore...
There s a man in my head... but he isn t me anymore...
I m gonna find me a ship... stowaway on a boat...
I m gonna burn all the words and letters and cards that I ever wrote
And you can sail with me... where the current flows
We re gonna move on up to... Medicine Bow
I m gonna change my colours... cancel my things...
Stop my squawking... grow some wings!
Well I will not sleep... and I will not rest...
I will put my soul... and my will to the test...
I m gonna tug at my tether... I m gonna tear at my lead...
I m gonna test my knowledge... in the field of deeds...
And you can run with me... as fast as we can go
Over the hill to... Medicine Bow
