There's horses on the prairie and there's pride out in the plains There's stories in the hillsides and old ghosts still robbing trains There's a mighty wind a'blowing but no one seems to mind out in the Big Sky There's acres upon acres upon miles of open road There's space enough to fill a city boy up to explode There's room to spill your guts out here and nothing seems to echo off the Big Sky In the Big Sky, I feel rhythm in my soul In the Big Sky, where the making broke the mold for the Big Sky Where river bends unwind and i get lost and then I find I just want a little piece of the Big Sky I just want a little piece of the Big Sky I just want a little taste of Big Sky living before I die I just want a little piece of the Big Sky
I've got a friend in California doing 29 to life There's shackles on his body but his mind is open wide And deep inside these walls he knows he's never satisfied without the Big Sky He's thinking and he's making up his mind to make a change He needs to see the mountains and the wild open range He's wondereing about the little things that he can rearrange to get to Big Sky In the Big Sky, I feel rhythm in my soul In the Big Sky, where the making broke the mold for the Big Sky Where river bends unwind and i get lost and then I find I just want a little piece of the Big Sky I just want a little piece of the Big Sky I just want a little taste of Big Sky living before I die I just want a little piece of the Big Sky
