lyrics

She wants to shout, “That’s it-I quit!”
Throw her apron on the bar room floor
With all the customers eyes upon her
Storm out those oak front doors.

She wants to run from the city boys
Who think that their so cool
And the wondering hands
Of the small time sharks
Liquored up and shooting pool

And every night after closing time
While the bus boys clear the bar
She sings of sweet Montana
And strums her blue guitar

And hums a little lullaby
To the child she carries within
And thinks about her night of love
With the boy she hoped would be her man

She’s a long way from Montana
Far from those evenings
Of lying in the prairie grass
She’s a long way from Montana
Where the stars never lie
And the nights seldom cry
Montana she’s wondering,
She’s asking why…
Why on earth she ever left you
Why she ever left you

Though she’d love to go back home
And raise this baby country style
She’s gonna make it on her own
Even if it takes her a while
