By the shores of Okie-homee,
By the dusty, sunburnt trailway,
Stood the wigwam of McCornack,
(Man-child of the corn-McCornack) .
...
My mom taught me
We wouldn't have near the trouble
with our educational system
...
At the end of our Red Dirt Road,
the only time we ever locked our car
was during the months of July and August,
because we didn't want too many neighbors
...
By the shores of old Pee-o-ree,
Mule and rider stopping, resting.
Mule deciding 'gainst going onward...
Dying from the weight, McCornack's.
...
Every morning I try to travel some red dirt roads
I always listen closely to what they have to say
Normally red dirt roads are very safe to travel
Until one morning a motorcycle started my way
...
Ice and snow mark the arrival of this new year
But my car is filled with gasoline. What a thrill
So I am anxiously awaiting to start my journey
Now I must find a red dirt road and go over the hill
...
Sometimes I am asked why I moved to Yukon
That life decision was made many moons ago
But it was made after careful consideration
And at the time it was the perfect place to go
...
From a distance horizon... hoofs approach
Silently they move in their own special way
For they are the bovine royality of the range
And their long horns are on constant display
...
Cloud Chief has and will always be my home town
Even when I go east, west, north, south, up or down
But now it is time to try to break out the back fence
And hit that trail back to my current Yukon residence
...
My internal clock has no numbers
My time is all about light and dark
For it is the beginning and the end
Their celebration is my trademark
...
