Townes Van Zandt - Snowin' On Raton (Official Audio)

"Snowin' On Raton" from Townes Van Zandt's album At My Window
Listen/Purchase: townesvanzandt...
Lyrics:
When the wind don't blow in Amarillo
And the moon along the Gunnison don't rise
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love, babe
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
Our mother thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
Little darling thinks the road is soft and lovely
And I'm thankful that old road's a friend of mine
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
I'll bid the years goodbye, you cannot still them
You cannot turn the circles of the sun
And you cannot count the miles until you feel them
And you cannot hold a lover that has gone
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
Well, tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
Silent 'neath a blanket, green and blue
All that I shall hear, the silence they are keeping
And I'll bring all their promises to you
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone

Drove through Raton, once. It's nearly a ghost town these days. Love this song!

With accompaniment!

A great song by one of the best songwriters of the past century.
(And I too will stand on Bob Dylan's coffee table in my cowboy boots & say that!🤠).☺
