Where I Come From
Where Life Unfolds: A Journey through the Heartland Melody
Lyrics
Out on that horizon, I can almost see tomorrow
Looking towards the future with anticipation.
Where the sunset meets the hillside, and the road begins to narrow
Describing a picturesque scene where the day ends and a journey begins.
Cross the golden wheat fields on the other side of the sun
Refers to crossing vast agricultural fields.
O'er the badlands and the rivers, where wild horses they still run
Passing through rough terrains where untamed horses roam.
That's where we come from
Identifying the origin or hometown of the speaker.
Did you sleep under that big sky, it can become your best friend
Highlighting the vastness of the sky and its relationship with an individual.
From Montana through Wyoming, man you'll swear it never ends
Describing the seemingly endless landscapes of Montana and Wyoming.
A Lone coyote howlin, he's just a searchin' for his pak
Depicting a lone coyote's search for its pack.
The Northern Lights dancin' in the night, man this is where life's at
Emphasizing the beauty and significance of experiencing the Northern Lights.
Where small town folk go to work each morning, still sit together at night
Portraying the routine of small-town life.
An a country boy can make an honest living, and the cowboy he still rides .. get up and ride
Reflecting the ability to maintain an honest living in rural areas.
Every year about July time, the county fair comes around,
Mentioning the annual county fair as a community event.
We all take out our best hat and we drive on into town
Preparing for and attending a local event with enthusiasm.
A couple hot dogs and a few cans of beer, and we're off to the rodeo
Enjoying simple pleasures like hot dogs and beer at the rodeo.
I hear the stock is really good this year, no cowboy's ever ridden that bull
Anticipating the challenge of unridden bulls at the rodeo.
Where small town folk go to work each morning, still sit together at night
Reiterating the lifestyle and routine of small-town living.
An a country boy can make an honest living, and a cowboy he can still ride .. ya let's get up and ride
Stressing the opportunities available to rural individuals.
After the rodeo, it's to the Stage Coach, there's a country band they play fine
Describing a local venue for live country music.
We'll have a 2 Steppin', slow dancing, maybe even romancing Country Boy kinda time
Anticipating a night of dancing and potential romance at the venue.
Probably sleep it off in my truck, hang my hat up for the night
Planning to rest in the truck after the event.
With a little luck, the skies will be clear, and I can catch them Northern Lights
Hoping for clear skies to view the Northern Lights again.
Where just a small town folk, go to work each morning, eat dinner together most nights
Emphasizing the communal aspect of daily life in a small town.
An a country boy can make an honest living, and the cowboy he still rides.. you gotta get up and ride
Reiterating the ability to sustain oneself in rural areas.
That's where I come from, That's where I come fromw
Reaffirming the speaker's roots or place of origin.
Cross the golden wheat fields on the other side of the sun
Repeating the description of crossing vast fields.
O'er the badlands and the rivers, where wild horses they still run
Reiterating the rough terrains and presence of wild horses.
That's where I come from
Concluding by reaffirming the origin or hometown.
