Rock Springs to Cheyenne

I don't think that I'll ever forget the winter of '72
 It must have been the coldest year that I ever knew
 I left my home in Dallas to head out for Idaho
 Before I reached Colorado I hit three feet of snow
 Singing Lord, let the wind blow you know I'm so cold
 Rock Springs to Cheyenne is a bad stretch I've been told
 2 o'clock in the morning on Thanksgiving Day
 It's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
 Yeah it's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
 There's a little dog riding by my side
 And he's shivering just like me
 And Lord I'm kind of glad it's dark outside
 Cause there really ain't nothing to see
 I kinda wish I had a radio to take my mind off you
 I got my hands on the wheel of something that's real
 And my fingers are turning blue
 Singing Lord, let the wind blow you know I'm so cold
 Rock Springs to Cheyenne is a bad stretch I've been told
 2 o'clock in the morning on Thanksgiving Day
 It's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
 Yeah it's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
 I learned a lesson in Denver and again in San Antone
 There's lies in California
 And you know the truth's in Mountain Home
 How can you trust your brother
 When you can't even trust yourself
 And your love's what keeps your woman
 From being with somebody else
 Singing Lord, let the wind blow you know I'm so cold
 Rock Springs to Cheyenne is a bad stretch I've been told
 2 o'clock in the morning on Thanksgiving Day
 It's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
 Yeah it's a damn good thing I'm a God fearing man
 I've been forced to pray
