strawberry flats - lake superior home lyrics
verse 1
i was born where the shores are rocky
and your breath freezes down in your lungs
i worked with my hands bout as long as i could stand
and learned to sing these old country songs
lord knows i was made to ramble
hearing tales of the california seas
soon as i hit land i wrote my name in the sand
and wandered beneath the redwood trees
chorus
sometimes the wind would touch lightly
but the chill ran down to my bones
that’s when i know, she called for me
and i longed for my lake superior home
vеrse 2
smoke began to fog my mind
so i hitchhikеd down to mississippi
i picked at honky tonks for whiskey all night long
but the bright lights they called to me
so i took my leave up to new york city
just searching for a brand new start
but it ain’t no place to wear a country boy’s shoes
and a sh+ll wrapped tight around my heart
chorus
sometimes the wind would touch lightly
but the chill ran down to my bones
that’s when i know, she called for me
and i longed for my lake superior home
bridge
oh dear mother what i have i done
forsaken my very own soul
there’s only one thing i have left to do
as my bones grow heavy and old
verse 3
now here i stand where i came from
with my hair near gray as the sky
and i know i am done with my ramblin
it was here where i was born to die
reprise
and when the wind touches lightly
but the chill runs down to my bones
that’s when i know, i’m where i belong
at rest in my lake superior home
