(Townes van Zandt)
(TVZ was and will always be the greatest songwriter from Texas. He was my dear friend and I miss him deeply!)

Well when the wind don't blow in Amarillo
And the moon along the Gunnyson don't rise
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love, babe
An' lie beneath the laughter of your eyes
Ah, snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone

Ah, mother thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
Well little darlin' thinks the road is soft and lovely
I'm thankful that old road's a friend of mine
Snowin' on Raton
Come mornin I'll be through them hills and gone
Ah, snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone

Ah, bid the years goodbye you cannot still them
Well you cannot turn the circles of the sun
Well you cannot count the miles until you feel them
And you cannot hold a lover that is gone

Ah, snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone

Yeah, tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
Silent 'neath the blanket green and blue
Ah, but I shall hear the silence they are keeping
An' I'll bring all their promises to you
I'll bring all their promises to you

Ah, snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone
Ah, snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone
