Idaho Songtext

von Yonder Mountain String Band

From Stanley up to Sunbeam
From Clayton on to Chalice,
Heading down the Salmon river
To a rangeland palace
Sage brush all around

Where the deer and elk do roam
This place I may call home
Where the flatlands stretch for miles
And the mountains touch the sky
And the sun always shines

[Chorus]
In Idaho, ohhhh
In Idaho, ohhhh
In Idaho, ohhhh
In Idaho

My mind is filled with images
Of saw-tooth bridges
Where the snow melt forms
Cold mountain creeks
Flowin' through the valley down below

I was standing 'neath the pine trees
On a bed of wild grass
This place has captured me, well far I can see
There ain't no place I'd rather be.

[Chorus: - "Than Idaho, ohhh..."]
