Snowin on Raton ( cover Townes Van Zandt)

Released in 1987 on the album "At my Window".
This is a slightly more upbeat version than the original and Spike is playing percussion.
Thanks to Robert Thiemann for the image although it's not Raton :)
Lyrics :
Well when the wind don't blow in Amarillo
And the moon along the Gunnison don't rise
Shall I cast my dreams upon your love, babe
And lie beneath the laughter of your eyes?
It's snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
Our mother thinks the road is long and lonely
Little brother thinks the road is straight and fine
Little darling thinks the road is soft and lovely
And I'm thankful that old road's a friend of mine
It's nowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
I'll bid the years goodbye, you cannot still them
You cannot turn the circles of the sun
And you cannot count the miles until you feel them
And you cannot hold a lover that has gone
It's snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
Well, tomorrow the mountains will be sleeping
Silent 'neath a blanket, green and blue
All that I shall hear, the silence they are keeping
And I'll bring all their promises to you
It's snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone (and gone)
It's snowin' on Raton
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone
Come mornin' I'll be through them hills and gone.
