Testo The Gate - Ian Munsick
Testo della canzone The Gate (Ian Munsick), tratta dall'album Eagle Feather
"All right Ian, go get the gate"
Green thermos full of coffee on the fence
He takes a sip and I see his breath
Morning dew walking in his steps like I always do
The horses need turning and the cows need fed
Square bails need a Chevy bed
I was dog tired and dripping sweat
Hardly even started yet
I looked at him and said "Dad how do you do it"
He looked at me said "Son there ain't much to it"
Just leave The Gate the way you found it
If there's a mountain don't go around it
Cause you gotta climb if you're ever gonna touch the sky
Hold the door for your lady
Cause one day she'll have your babies
It's a wild ride, hold 'em tight while you still have time
And man give everything you can
So you have an empty hand to share it
When you get to The Gate
He drove through it and he left me stare
He said "I've never been but from what I hear
They got the same fields of gold up there that we got down here
That's why we treat this land like our own piece of Heaven"
Pray for the rain and we count every blessing
Every day is a gift with a lesson
Trust me when I say
Just leave The Gate the way you found it
If there's a mountain don't go around it
Cause you gotta climb if you're ever gonna touch the sky
Hold the door for your lady
Cause one day she'll have your babies
It's a wild ride, hold 'em tight while you still have time
And man give everything you can
So you have an empty hand to share it
When you get to The Gate
"Most folks don't live life like this these days
Son it's up to us to carry on the cowboy ways"
So leave The Gate the way you found it
If there's a mountain don't go around it
Cause you gotta climb if you're ever gonna touch the sky
Hold the door for your lady
Cause one day she'll have your babies
It's a wild ride, hold 'em tight while you still have time
And man give everything you can
So you have an empty hand to share it
When you get to The Gate
"Ok Crawford, get the gate for me"
"Ok daddy"
