Lyrics
Sturgis
I wove my way through the Badland Hills.
Just make a wrong turn - You will be there still.
They call them 'Badlands' 'cos the lands are bad.
Ain't no reason - Just God's greater plan.
Ain't no earthly reason...Just God's greater plan.
I made my way through the California gold.
The girls are pretty there - Just like we was told.
They bake 'em brown in the sinnin' sun.
The only trouble is, I never got me one.
Only trouble is - Never got me one.
I had a thing to say, but no one heard it.
Guess I never really had much talent that way.
I'd rather strap on my spurs, slide m' boots in the stirrups.
Rather kick down my ride - Get on over to Sturgis.
I fought my way from the Jersey shore out East.
Man, it's city on top of city with no relief.
Folks there are slick and tend to be mean.
I'm glad to be shot of that big-city scene.
Yeah, glad to be done with that big-city scene.
Tore myself away from the deep-down Dixie South.
Hid away all winter in a sleepy river town.
They drink some dam' good liquor, Race okay cars.
Like to stay, but I gotta go far.
Would-a like to stay, but I gotta go Oh, so far.
I had a thing to say, but no one heard it.
Guess I never really had a gift that way.
I'd rather strap on my spurs, slide m' boots in the stirrups.
Rather kick down my ride - Get on over to Sturgis.
So I'm cruising along...Through the Badland hills.
Hangin' on tight - A cocoa-buttered thrill.
They call them "Badlands", but they ain't so bad.
With a little 'Jack D' or 'Fire Ball' at hand.
Just a little 'Jack D'...'Fire Ball' close at hand.
I had a thing to say, but no one heard it.
Guess I never really was too good that way.
I'd rather strap on my spurs, slide m' boots in the stirrups.
Rather kick down my ride - Get on over to Sturgis.
I had a thing to say, but no one heard it.
Guess I never really had much talent that way.
I'd rather strap on my spurs, slide m' boots in the stirrups.
Rather kick down my ride - Get on over to Sturgis.
