By Craig
Johnson
1. I've traveled this country from the Keewanaw headlands
Where the
wild gulls do cry from the rocks to the sea,
From the cold inland ocean to the Manitou
Island,
Far away from my home, strange places to see.
Chorus;
And the
stars will shine bright on the south shore tonight
And the Keewanaw light sweeps over the
bay
And if dreams could come true, I'd still be there with you
On the banks of cold
waters at the close of the day.
2. I've drifted through the boom towns, a century
dying
Past the ruins of the smelters and the rusted head frames.
Down through
Mohawk, and Ahneek, Centennial and Lorean
And other sad places that pass without
name.
3. I've counted the crossties, dry bones of the railroad,
That stretch from the
sunrise to the close of the day,
And I've counted the miles between me and my
truelove,
The miles and the highways that carried me away.
4. Now the leaves have
turned gold, summer's neigh over,
The wild geese sweep low over Lake Manganese
In
this far away land you can walk by slow river
Alongside cold waters 'neath the whispering
trees.
