I'm Goin' Back To Idaho Lyrics

Walkin' Jim Stoltz I'm Goin' Back To Idaho

(Capo to key)
GC D G Em
1) I first walked her mountains when I was a lad,
C D G Em
It rained every day, 'twas the worst time I had,
C D G Em
But the waters run pure and the forests all grow,
C D GCG
Oh, so green, in Idaho.
C D GCG
Chorus: I'm goin' back to Idaho,
C D G C G

Down where the Salmon River flows,
C D G Em
I'm goin' back to them high country snows,
C D GCG
I'm goin' back to Idaho.
2) I nearly died on her desert, the Snake River Plain,
There isn't much shade, and there isn't no rain,
I was eatin' the dust as my water ran low,
Racin' the sun in Idaho.
(Chorus)
3) There's a place that I know in the Sawtooth Range,
The Spangle Lakes, I hope it never does change.
It's a little piece of heaven all locked up in snow,
That's why I'm crazy about Idaho.
(Chorus)
