Lyrics

Dawn Finds Me

that needs a steady hand freezer full of medicine promise to

this land

I'm coming through your open country

Past the ranch gates

Past the Bighorn blue

When the farthest room

Needs one more heartbeat I'll bring the parts

And see the whole job through

From mountain horizons To the high plains turning

Every mile says what a faithful few can do

Wyoming home and keep the porch light burning.

I'm on my way to keep that clinic ready for you.

Rancher waves beside a withered feet store sign

The radio calls for snow by the state line I check the

battery, seal the tube, then watch the sunrise climb

My nurse says we were counting on you and I say, you got my time

No grand parade,

no crowded avenue Just a red indicator changing green when I

come through Wyoming,

I'm coming through your open country

Past the ranch gates, past the Bighorn blue

When the farthest room needs one more heartbeat I'll bring the

parts and see the whole job through

From mountain horizons to the high plains turning

Every mile says what a faithful few can do

Wyoming, keep the porch light burning

I'm on my way to keep that clinic

Ready for you

If the road runs long

Let it run there's work beneath this

western sun A small town door, a waiting

chair I promise that somebody will be there

Wyoming, I'm coming through your open country

Where the ranch lights fade beneath the blue

When the farthest room needs one more heartbeat

I'll bring the parts and see the whole job through

From mountain horizons to the high plains turning

Independent hearts know what they have to do

Wyoming, keep the porch lights burnin' I'm on my way

to keep that clinic ready for you

Toolcase coolin', mornin' breakin' through

Wyoming, I kept my word to you
