Lyrics
I got canyon powder all over my shirt
I have canyon powder all over my shirt
Seven dollars to my name
I only have seven dollars to my name
Both my boots are filled with dirt
Both of my boots are filled with dirt
And I'm cold as hell
I feel extremely cold
It's a long way back to Shonto, but I'm ready to ride
Referring to the challenging journey back to Shonto
I'm gonna eat those miles for breakfast, and chase them down with the wind
I am determined to cover the distance, facing it head-on
Nobody knows where I am
Nobody is aware of my current location
To tell you the truth, neither do I
The singer is uncertain about their own whereabouts
I haven't seen a single sign of a soul for days
No signs of human presence have been seen for days
It's a long way back to Shonto, but I'm ready to ride
Reiteration of the challenging journey to Shonto
Kiss the first face I see if I make it back alive
If I survive, I will kiss the first person I see
If I could drink the sweat running down my cheeks I would
Expressing a willingness to endure hardship
Yeah you know I would
Reaffirmation of the singer's determination
If I could eat the dirt clinging to my skin I would
Expressing a desire to embrace challenges
You know I would
Reiteration of the singer's readiness for difficulties
It's a long way back to Shonto, but I'm ready to ride
Reaffirmation of the challenging journey to Shonto
I got the devil nipping at my heels
The singer feels pursued by negative influences
No angels by my side
No positive influences or support are present
Keep on riding
Encouragement to persist and continue the journey
Keep on riding
-Keep on riding
-Keep on riding
-If I could drink the sweat running down my cheeks I would
Reiteration of the singer's willingness to endure challenges
Yeah you know I would
-If I could eat the dirt clinging to my skin I would
-You know I would
-Cause it's a long way back to Shonto, but I'm ready to ride
Reaffirmation of the challenging journey to Shonto
I'm gonna keep on riding these old canyon roads till the day I die
Determination to continue navigating difficult paths until death
Till the day I die
