Blue Northern

The sun's sinking low in the Texas sky

My boots leave behind a dusty goodbye

I'm heading North, where the wind chills the bones

Beneath a blue northern, where the starlight has flown

I'm where the cattle graze high in the Panhandle plains

Where the echoes of coyotes sing a lonesome refrain

I'm taking all these backroads, 'cause I don't want to be back home

Almost forgot the feeling of rain rolling on my own

Towards a blue northern, blue northern sky

Towards a blue northern, blue northern sky

Now I'm caught in a song, that the northern man sing

When the flowers cleave the ground in the spring

There's nothing wrong, I've been singing it for so long

In the forlorn my soul is torn

I'm where the cattle graze high in the Panhandle plains

Where the echoes of coyotes sing a lonesome refrain

I'm taking all these backroads, 'cause I don't want to be back home

Almost forgot the feeling of rain rolling on my own

Towards a blue northern, blue northern sky

Towards a blue northern, blue northern sky

Towards a blue northern, blue northern sky

The sun's sinking low in that blue northern sky

My boots leave behind a dusty goodbye
