I'm going north tonight where it's lonely The holy land of stone is calling me And I ride on steel and silver wings And I ride on the old gray ribbons north I'm going north I'm going north Pack it up now I'm home 'cause I'm gonna be free In the land where the big sky meets the sea And even though my heart is heavy I'm gonna leave my home I'm going north I'm going north I'm going north And the sun goes down way too fast And the sun stays down too long Yeah, Yeah I'm gonna keep on movin' 'til I'm not around Leave this dirty, tired town Put your sugar down on my front seat "Cause you truly know what's good for me And we'll ride like ghosts on the steel rail And we'll drive on the old gray ribbon north I'm going north I'm going north
