LYRICS: We ran off chasing rainbows 'Neath The blue Montana sky And we self-proclaimed our freedom with a roar We crossed those raging rivers And we drank the taverns dry And we bowed our heads to legends Gone before Chorus: Are you ready for the long journey home? The flatlands, swamps and bayous in your bones The simple life tastes sweeter now You have no need to roam Are you ready for the long journey home? The wind down off the Yellowstone Blows coal trains off their tracks And the water springs eternal from the fire An eagle flies at sunrise 'Cross an aspen grove and back And the moonlight brings a blue coyote choir Chorus In dreams of mile-high cotton fields We once ran barefoot through My dead drunk Uncle Fireball growls these words "Blood don't make you family boy And I've got news for you Rattlesnakes don't sing like speckled birds" Chorus Follow Rodney Crowell: Facebook:  / rodneycrowellofficial   Twitter:   / rodneyjcrowell   http://www.rodneycrowell.com
