For your information, Medicine Bow, in South Wyoming, is the highest peak in the Snowy Range of the Rocky Mountains, towering over 12,013 feet. It is usually covered with snow from October to late June. Summer conditions up there can be extreme, with frequent thunderstorms and hail during the afternoons.
Ey@elThere's a black wind blowing
A typhoon on the rise
Pummeling rain
Murderous skies
I'm gonna take my books
I'm gonna wear my coat
I'm gonna find my scarf,
Wrap it around my throat
And you can come with me
Through the driving snow
We're gonna ride on up to
Medicine Bow
I spent too long
With my face in the floor
There's a man in my head
But he isn't me anymore
I'm gonna find me a ship
Stowaway on a boat
I'm gonna burn all the words
And letters and cards
That I ever wrote
And you can sail with me
Where the current flows
We're gonna move on up to
Medicine Bow
I'm gonna change my colours
Throw away all my things
Stop my squawking
Grow some wings...
Well I will not sleep
And I will not rest
I'm gonna put my soul
And my will to the test
I'm gonna tug at my tether
I'm gonna tear at my lead
I'm gonna test my knowledge
In the field of deeds
And you can run with me
Fast as we can go
Over the hill to
Medicine Bow
The night is dark
And the night is still
But over on the shadowy
Side of the hill
Fires are burning
I can see them glow
I can feel the Light
Coming up from
Medicine Bow
And you can come with me
Through the rain and snow
Tonight we dine in
