lyrics

I lost your love when I moved across the sea
I live in the wild country
Where the stars still shine in the darkest night
For the first time I am alive
I carved your name in a redwood tree
Out here in the wild country

I built this fire, I howl at the moon
If your gonna come along, you better come soon
If you stay here, nothings gonna change
I already gave boatman your name
You don’t need much, come as you are
I’ll save you a seat at the bar

I am an orphan, a spy , a refugee
My heart belongs to the wild country
The jute box here plays all your favorite tunes
And the newspapers only print the truth
I’ll take you dancing out in the streets
There's a place for you here to rest your feet

Everyone should come along
If its trouble you want then you cant go wrong
Yes I'm holding on to 29
But just wait until you try the wine
In the Wild Country
