Sandhill Girl

Oh, my Sandhill girl, come away with me

Down to the Rocky Mountains and be free

We'll make a little home, but one thing's for sure

Aw, you can't take the Sandhill out of that girl

I picked her up on a Tuesday, out on CR-54

Man, we headed west for Wyoming, she really didn't understand what for

She said the sunsets are much prettier when the mountains aren't in the way

Well, that was much to my dismay

Oh, my Sandhill girl, come away with me

Down to the Rocky Mountains and be free

We'll make a little home, but one thing's for sure

Aw, you can't take the Sandhill out of that girl

We read a paperback by the water, along a stretch of Highway 2

On the banks of the Dismal River, on a hot and unprecedented day in June

She said that meaning only comes when you don't let chances pass you by

That's how you really learn to fly

Oh, my Sandhill girl, come away with me

Down to the Rocky Mountains and be free

We'll make a little home, but one thing's for sure

Aw, you can't take the Sandhill out of that girl
