Dave Stamey - Tonopah lyrics

Artist: Dave Stamey

album: Tonopah


I carry my saddle by the side of the road
Hard rain's falling, wind blowing cold
East across the mountains here, Nevada sings
Telling me, "it's time to hurry home"
And I would fly there now if I had wings
And go soaring back to Tonopah
Headlights glowing, the cars hurry past
Just like the years are flowing so fast
If I can get there I'll know be warm
The aching in my bones will soon be gone
I fear the darkness of this coming storm
As I journey back to Tonopah
Ooh-ooh, oh the night is falling
Ooh-ooh, oh hear Nevada calling
Hot, dry and wind-blown country calling me
And where those shadows run so tall
Hot, dry and wind-blown country, I can hear you calling to me
Calling me back to Tonopah
There I was young, there I was brave
There was a warm kiss waiting at the end of the day
Everything I wanted I left waiting there
Now I see the things I never saw
My dreams are shattered now and no-one cards
So I'm going back to Tonopah
Ooh-ooh, oh the night is falling
Ooh-ooh, oh hear Nevada calling
Hot, dry and wind-blown country calling me
And where those shadows run so tall
Hot, dry and wind-blown country, I can hear you calling to me
Calling me back to Tonopah
And if I can reach the desert, I know I'll be young again
I'll touch my woman's face, and things will be as they were then
Bad horses, work and whiskey have left me tired and sore
And I ain't got no use for wanderin' anymore
I turn up my collar, turn my face to the wind
Trucks rumble by, seems my chances are slim
East across the mountains here, Nevada sings
Telling me, "it's time to hurry home"
I pick up my saddle and head for all the things
I left waiting there, in Tonopah
Ooh-ooh, oh the night is falling
Ooh-ooh, oh hear Nevada calling
Hot, dry and wind-blown country calling me
And where those shadows run so tall
Hot, dry and wind-blown country, I can hear you calling to me
Calling me back to Tonopah
