Waltz Across Montana
-Written by Doug Adkins-
i’d waltz across Montana over you
across the plains to the Rocky Mountains
Idaho to that North Dakota line
i’ll show you a way of livin’ pure as our sky is blue
well I never thought i’d be sayin’ this
but girl you got me thinkin’
i’d waltz across Montana over you
you’d never catch me down in Georgia
i know a peach can’t hold my mind
no business goin to California
i’m afraid i’d just be wastin’ time
but you can drop me in Montana
just across the border i’ll be fine
then i’ll put my arm around your waste
and dance across that Northern Highline
yes i’d waltz across Montana over you
across the plains to the Rocky Mountains
Idaho to that North Dakota line
i’ll show you a way of livin’ pure as our sky is blue
well I never thought i’d be sayin’ this
but girl you got me thinkin’
i’d waltz across Montana over you
thought i’d seen em all by now
my heart broke by every kind
yes i did what Ol’ John Cash said
always my best to “Walk The Line”
they all start out by really lovin’ on you
but she that giveth taketh away
i swore that i’d never fall again
but with you i might just give this heart away
yes i’d waltz across Montana over you
across the plains to the Rocky Mountains
Idaho to that North Dakota line
i’ll show you a way of livin’ pure as our sky is blue
well I never thought i’d be sayin’ this
but girl you got me thinkin’
i’d waltz across Montana over you
i’ll show you a way of livin’
pure as our sky is blue
girl I never thought i’d be sayin’ this
but you sure got me thinkin’
i’d waltz across Montana over you

Loved You More
-Written by Doug Adkins-
i hear your name, my mind begins to turn
about our love and the bridges i burned
apologise for tearin’ us apart
miss every beat of your broken heart
and i love you more than sunshine
i love you more than anything i ever need
i love you more than red wine
more than every breath i breathe
we all have love that we’ve done wrong
that’s where we get all these silly love songs
still it hurts so bad the day they walk away
and i’m so sorry girl you never heard me say
that i love you more than sunshine
i love you more than everything i ever need
i love you more than red wine
more than every breath i breathe
well you can paint a picture girl
of why you just couldn’t stay
i surely do apologise
that you never heard me say
that i love you more than sunshine
yes i loved you more than sunshine
i loved you more than anything i ever need
i loved you more than red wine
more than every breath i breathe
yes i loved you more than sunshine
i loved you more than anything i ever need
i loved you more than red wine
more than every breath i breathe

Ropin' The Wind
(Doug Adkins)
June 21, 2011
Ropin`the wind
i was, on a hill side standin’ all alone
like a rider in a storm, out on his own
deep in the darkness, saw my dreams fade in the night
turned my head to the left, to the right
guess there’s just some things i can’t make right
i’m like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
i ask myself, where in this world do i fit in
throw my rope around a dream
tit slips right through my fingers
like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
they always told me, that my life would shine so bright
now i’m standin’ at a crossroads, and i don’t know
should i turn left or right
i’m like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
i ask myself, where in this world do i fit in
throw my rope around a dream
it slips through my fingers again
like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
i just gotta know, where my world will go from here
i ask myself that age ol’ question
what the hell am i doin’ here
they told me, my life would shine so bright
i’m standin’ at a crossroads
and I don’t know, should i turn left or right
i’m like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
i ask myself, where in this world do i fit in
throw my rope around a dream
it slips right through my fingers
like a cowboy ropin’ the wind
we’re like cowboys ropin’ the wind
we ask ourself, where in this world do we fit in
throw a rope around a dream
it slips right through our fingers again
we’re like cowboys ropin’ the wind

Mary Jane Riley
-Written by Doug Adkins / Gerd Vogel-
well i was talkin’ on the phone with my ol’ buddy joe
he told me bout a club where MJ Riley goes
i never was the kind to chase the gals around
somehow all that changed when mary jane came to town
in the bottom of my stomach things started rumblin
hey that little lady she got me feelin’ somethin’
just like the other day, at the barber shop
ted and bill and george and me were drinkin’ sodie pop
not a single one could even swat a fly
when that little lady went slowly walkin’ by
what a sight to see all the boys a fumblin’
Mary Jane Riley she got the catfish jumpin
i never played the fool but on my knees i’d crawl
Mary Jane Riley got me feelin’ 10 feet tall
since she moved to town i’m thinkin’ that i’m somethin’
Mary Jane Riley she got the catfish jumpin’
well it was 20 years she stepped into my life
she said i was the one so i made that gal my wife
she looks into my eyes i’m her little prince
she whispers in my ear gives me little hints
she’s tellin all her friends i’m really somethin’
ya Mary Jane Riley she keeps the tractor rumblin’
i never played the fool but on my knees i’d crawl
hey that little lady she catch me when i fall
the day she moved to town started thinkin’ i was somethin’
cause Mary Jane Riley she keeps the tractor rumblin’
she’s tellin’ all her friends that i’m really cool
that lady finds a compliment for everything i do
she’s the sweetest thing a man like me could ever find
i’m livin’ like a king cause that little gal is mine
i never played the fool but on my knees i’d crawl
hey that little lady she catch me when i fall
the day she moved to town started thinkin’ i was somethin’
cause Mary Jane Riley she keeps the tractor rumblin’
i never played the fool but on my knees i’d crawl
Mary Jane Riley got me feelin’ 10 feet tall
the day she moved to town started thinkin’ i was somthin’
Mary Jane Riley she got the catfish jumpin

To Santa Fe
-Written by Matt Wegner / Doug Adkins-
the war was over and the killing fields lay burned
Confederate veterans coming home
with hearts on fire from the battles they returned
old memories scarred them to the bone
there’d always been a lot of cattle on the plains
large herds untouched by branding iron
most of em had to start over again
young texans proud and defiant
they travelled far along that chisholm trail
runnin’ longhorns to the union pacific rail
in clouds of dust and dreams of yesterday
they’re headin’ back To Santa Fe
night herders cry `stampede`would split the air
the slightest sound could spook the herds
with shots and shouts they’d try to turn the head
many a cowboy`s buried in that earth
one flash of lightning a thunderstruck mass
wolfpack howlin in the night
old cowmen softly calm them doggies down
singin’ the ballad of Sam Bass
they travelled far along that chisholm trail
runnin’ longhorns to the union pacific rail
in clouds of dust and dreams of yesterday
they’re headin’ back To Santa Fe
cloth covered wagons movin’ cross the range
homesteaders cry “go west” young man
wide open spaces cut by barbed wire fence
the drovers days came to end
they travelled far along that chisholm trail
runnin’ longhorns to the union pacific rail
in clouds of dust and dreams of yesterday
they’re headin’ back To Santa Fe
they travelled far along that chisholm trail
runnin’ longhorns to the union pacific rail
in clouds of dust and dreams of yesterday
they’re headin’ back To Santa Fe
