Rain In Durango

Lyrics

She's a long way from Houston
 Long way from them old Texas blues
 And she came down from Telluride
 On a steam train bound for somewhere new
 There's a rainbow in the mountains
 And she's waiting on the sun to shine on through
 You can't tell the tears from the rain
 If you ain't walked a mile in her boots
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 Right side of wrong, wrong side of gone
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 She's waiting on some cowboy
 To lasso her heart and take her home
 ♪
 Well, she fell in with some field hippies
 Went needle dancing in a tie dye dress
 Then a Rocky Mountain rain came
 And they all got soakin' wet
 She wound up with a backstage pass
 Hangin' with the pickers in the band
 'Til her heart got broke by a banjo man
 Now she's had all the bluegrass she can stand
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 Right side of wrong, wrong side of gone
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 She's just waiting on some cowboy
 To lasso her heart and take her home
 ♪
 She had all of her belongings
 In a cardboard suitcase sittin' by her side
 And she had no destination
 She was just lookin' for a ride
 So he pulled up in a Mustang
 She got in and they just rode away
 Headed west into the sunset
 Mascara runnin' down her face
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 Right side of wrong, wrong side of gone
 Standing in the rain in Durango
 She's waiting on some cowboy
 To lasso her heart and take her home
 ♪
 Standing in the rain in Durango
