Montana - Alt Version

A fifteen year old kid from St. Paul

Hopped on a train and headed west

Got a job at a St. Mary Restaurant

Washing dishes and making friends

The years went by like the seasons

And they brought him a lifetime of joy

He bought ten or twelve acres of heaven

And a paradise vantage point

And he built a cabin at the foot of the mountains

That stole his heart when he was a boy

On North Fork Road you're almost home

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever (Heaven's calling you home)

His son worked hard in West Glacier

His daughter sold souvenirs

And he always went back to Polebridge

With his family every year

To his green tin roof in the Rockies

And his sky so full of stars

His spirit lives in these mountains

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever (Heaven's calling you home)

Where adventure calls your name

Every moment is worth more than diamonds

When you spend time in the treasure state

So get lost in the Big Sky country

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam (Heaven's calling you home)

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever (Heaven's calling you home)
