Big Sky from Gasoline by Necrovert

The first men to walk this road, nobody knows their names
Not much left to find among the bones
A chunk of rock that they worked real hard to shape into a blade
To carve their story deep into the stone

The hunters of the buffalo built legends of their own
Carried down in voices on the wind
They spilt their blood and shed their tears along this windin’ road
But the children of the land are still its friend

This country’s got a song to sing, just listen close and hear
There’s stories that are written in the sky
A symphony of sunsets that echoes through the years
And memories reflected in her eyes

The Spaniards came and gave their names to the roads they left behind
Carryin’ the word of God and man
They looked real hard but never found the gold they came to find
But their horses spread like wildfire through the land

Then men in covered wagons, and cowboys in their boots
Chasin’ after dreams and fantasies
They found a whole new way of life by tearin’ up their roots
And rollin’ down this road like tumbleweeds

This country’s got a song to sing, just listen close and hear
There’s stories that are written in the sky
A symphony of sunsets that echoes through the years
And memories reflected in her eyes

Nowadays, we don’t think much of the road we’re drivin’ on
The pioneers and travelers come before
Good men and the bad ones too, they all kept movin’ on
And, above their graves, a lonely eagle soars

So, try now to remember, the debt that we all owe
To the generations buried in the earth
The ancestors of all we are and all that we’ll become
And the gift of life they gave us at our birth

This country’s got a song to sing, just listen close and hear
There’s stories that are written in the sky
A symphony of sunsets that echoes through the years
And memories reflected in her eyes
