Boulder to Birmingham lyrics
by Emmylou Harris
I don't want to hear a road song
I got on this airplane just to fly
And I know there's life below me
But all that you can show me is the prairy and the sky
I don't wanna hear sad stories
'bout their heartache and desire
The last time I felt like this
I was in the wilderness and the canyon was on fire
And I stood on the mountain in the night and I watched it burn
I watched it burn, I watched it burn
Ref.
And I rocked my soul in the bossom of Abraham
I hold my eyes saving grace
And I'll walk all the way from Boulder to Birmingham
if I thought I could see, I could see your face
Well you really got me this time
and the hardest part is knowing I'll survive
I've come to listen for the sound
of the trucks as they road on out on the Highway Ninety-five
Pretending it's the ocean coming by to watch me glean
to watch me glean, you know what I mean
Ref.
And I will rock my soul in the bossom of Abraham
I'll hold my life saving grace
I'll walk all night from Boulder to Birmingham
if I thought I could see, I could see your face
