Yonder Mountain String Band

Idaho Lyrics



From Stanley up to Sunbeam

from Clayton on to Chalice,

Heading down the Salmon river

To a rangeland palace

Sage brush all around



Where the deer & elk do roam

This place I may call home

Where the flatlands stretch for miles

& the mountains touch the sky

& the sun always shines



Chorus:

In Idaho, ohhhh

In Idaho, ohhhh

In Idaho, ohhhh

In Idaho



My mind is filled with images

Of saw-tooth bridges

Where the snow melt forms

Cold mountain creeks

Flowin' through the valley down below



I was standing 'neath the pine trees

On a bed of wild grass

This place has captured me, well far I can see

There ain't no place I'd rather be.



(Chorus - "Than Idaho, ohhh...")
