Oh Mckenzie Silver Water
Mckenzie Silver Water: A Journey of Love, Loss, and Redemption
Lyrics
The super coach
The skilled coach
Pulled into the station
Arrived at the station
The best five bucks he ever spent
Considering it a valuable five-dollar expense
With dust in his pockets
Having dust in his pockets
And dust on his brim
And dust on his hat's brim
He followed her there
He pursued her to a new beginning
A new life begins
A fresh chapter unfolds
Heading down to California
Traveling to California
Two newlyweds
As a newly married couple
They ran out of money and needed a bed
Facing financial challenges and seeking shelter
They landed in Oregon
They settled in Oregon
And got a steady job
Securing a stable job
Pumping gas and living in sin
Working and cohabiting without marriage
Oh Mckenzie Silver Water
Addressing a place named McKenzie Silver Water
May I always call you home
Expressing a desire to consider it home
Oh Mckenzie Silver Water
Committing to keeping the heart close
Never far will my heart roam
They had a baby girl
They had an illegitimate baby girl
Out of wedlock
Outside of marriage
She always thought she was a Pisces
She believed she was a Pisces
She reads her horoscope
Checking her horoscope with shamrocks in green
In shamrocks in green
Realizing she wasn't who she thought
She found out she wasn't the girl she'd been
But the river keeps flowing
The river continues flowing
Even after the knowing
Even after the revelation
In a hundred years who'd give a damn?
Questioning the significance in a century
Oh Mckenzie Silver Water
Returning to McKenzie Silver Water
May I always call you home
Requesting it to always be considered home
Oh Mckenzie Silver Water
Ensuring the heart is never far away
Never far will my heart roam
