gerald brennan - dakota dreams lyrics

Loading...

got lots of money and a real nice place
but this big apple is a real rat race
crowded subways, all the noise and the blight

can’t even see the starts at night

i took a trip out dakota way
and now i think about it ev’ry day
plenty of sp+ce and the lady was fine
we even rode our horses to the silver mine
in quiet hills, the eagle’s flight
the lake shines clear, the stars shine bright

we had a picnic near the timber line
in the shadow of a tall ponderosa pine
but now i’m back here in nyc
starin’ at a plastic christmas tree
i know there’s more to life than this
there’s not much here that i shall miss

i know i’ll never forget these days
the yankee games and the broadway plays
winter’s first snowfall on manhattan
the world’s best chinese food is half a block away

people tell me that it’s not what it seems
they’re try’na smother my dakota dreams
mostly tell me i’ll be lonesome and sad
just ’cause i gave up everything i had
there must be more to life than this
there’s not much here that i shall miss

my girlfriend warns me that she won’t come along
i told her, babe, you’re seein’ this all wrong
i’m gonna add to my family tree
that fine dakota girl who dreams of me

we can build a nice home overlooking the lake
find a baker who can bake us up a wedding cake
settle down and raise up a family
lots of boys and girls to grow up strong and free
