Lyrics for Rapid City, South Dakota by Kinky Friedman:
| | | Artist: | Kinky Friedman |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Rapid City, South Dakota | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 70 | | | | Lyrics: | (kinky friedman)
Just a ragged kid in overalls, he thumbed a ride one day
He told me,
anywhere you're going's on my way.
But as we passed by big al's drive-in his eyes began to
flash
He was leavin' rapid city mighty fast.
He said, i hope to god she finds the
good-bye letter that i wrote her
But the mail don't move so fast in rapid city, south
dakota.
Well, he left her just a blanket of snow upon the farm
And that don't keep your
conscience very warm.
He said his friends were too durn country and his pa was too damn
mean
And there weren't no money pumpin' gasoline.
And her gentle eyes, the merchandise
of dreams the peddler sold her
Who left her there alone in rapid city, south
dakota.
Now the reason he was goin', i ain't sure i could say,
Might've been the rodeo
in santa f.
there's a doctor in chicago, i know she'll be all right
He told himself as he
stared into the night.
And he said, i hope to god she finds the good-bye letter that i
wrote her
But the mail don't move so fast in rapid city, south dakota.
And all her
people treatin' her just like they never knowed her
Lord, the winter's passin' slow in rapid
city, south dakota. | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
