Big Sky Country

Red-winged blackbird

Sitting on a cattail's end

Red-winged blackbird

Sitting on a cattail's end

Light enough to be there

But heavy enough to bend

Red-winged blackbird

Sitting on a cattail's end

Meet me where the Land of the Living Skies

Meets Big Sky Country

Meet me where the Land of the Living Skies

Meets Big Sky Country

I wish my tears were in your eyes

And your eyes were on me

Meet me where the Land of the Living Skies

Meets Big Sky Country

Last time I saw you

You disappeared down the street before the bend

Last time I saw you

You disappeared down the street before the bend

And I said, hey, hey, my Eliza

I squint to blur my eyes until when

The street looked like a cattail

With you at its end
