Sunrise on the Absaroke Lyrics by Wild Horses
“Rollin’ into Angeles with blurried eyes and busted fists
I cannot take much more of this but I can’t see the end
Summer’s sun is fading fast
And the first day now will later pass
In time I’m gonna ride that northern highway to my home
All this time all the money that you earned
Will take you back to the lessons that you learned
Is it the highway signs the county lines or the roads run in between
I’m falling ever faster dear my darling highway queen
Sunrise on the Absaroke
And I don’t know when I’ve been this broke
I’m just living on the dream they said we had until we don’t
Are we all just passing through
to find our place along the avenue
I wonder if there’s nothing more to do until we die
All this time all the money that you earned
Will take you back to the lessons that you learned
Is it the highway signs the county lines or the roads run in between
I’m falling ever faster dear my darling highway queen
Livin’ in the in between trying to beat the desert heat
There’s nothing I could do to keep
from crying my way home
Are we breaking down or burning out
Trying to make it out of this one horse town
Praying we can do without the need to start again
All this time all the money that you earned
Will take you back to the lessons that you learned
Is it the highway signs the county lines or the roads run in between
I’m falling ever faster dear my darling highway queen
Is it the highway signs the county lines or the roads run in between
I’m falling ever faster dear my darling highway queen”
