Montana
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 makin' friends.
The years went by like the seasons,
and they brought him a lifetime of joy.
He bought ten or twelve acres of heaven
with 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...
Chorus:
Get lost in Montana,
where your heart can finally roam.
Get lost in Montana,
where the mountains call you home.
Get lost forever
in Montana.
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 a sky so full of stars.
His spirit lives in these mountains
where Montana first stole his heart.
On North Fork Road you're almost home...
Chorus:
Get lost in Montana,
where your heart can finally roam.
Get lost in Montana,
where the mountains call you home.
Get lost forever
in Montana.
A few words on a bumper sticker
were all I needed to read.
I found myself for the first time
when Montana enchanted me.
So get lost in the Big Sky Country
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,
and let your heart lead the way.
