There's a black wind blowing a typhoon on the rise
Pummeling rain murderous skies!
I'm gonna take my books I'm gonna wear my coat
I'm gonna find my scarf and wrap it around my throat
And you can come with me through the driving snow
We're gonna ride on up to Medicine Bow
Well I spent too long just stuck on the shore
There's a man in my head but he isn't me anymore
I'm gonna find me a ship stowaway on a boat
I'm gonna burn all the words and letters and cards that I ever wrote
And you can sail with me where the current flows
We're gonna move on up to Medicine Bow
I'm gonna change my colours cancel my things
Stop my squawking grow some wings!
Well I will not sleep and I will not rest
I will put my soul and my will to the test
I'm gonna tug at my tether I'm gonna tear at my lead
I'm gonna test my knowledge in the field of deeds
And you can run with me as fast as we can go
Over the hill to Medicine Bow
