Josh Ritter - The Animal Years

Idaho

All that love all those mistakes
What else can a poor man make?
I gave up a life of crime
I gave it to a friend of mine

Something else was on my mind
The only ghost I'm haunted by
I hear her howling down below
Idaho oh Idaho

Wolves oh wolves oh can't you see?
Ain't no wolf can sing like me
And if it could then I suppose
She belongs in Idaho

With packs of dogs and cigarettes
For those who ain't done packing yet
My clothes are packed and I want to go
Idaho oh Idaho

Out at sea for seven years
I got your letter in Tangier
Thought that I'd been on a boat
Til that single word you wrote

That single word it landlocked me
Turned the masts to cedar trees
And the winds to gravel roads
Idaho oh Idaho
And the winds to gravel roads
Idaho oh Idaho

Thank you
