bruneau canyon - brenn hill lyrics

Loading...

verse 1:
i spent a night in the bunkhouse
down on sheep creek at simplot #2
those black rock cliffs were all around us
and the sky was a starry midnight blue
woke with the sunrise in the mornin’
desert sparrows singin’ through the brush
i saddled jasper in the lantern light
and prayed i would make a hand that he could trust

chorus:
in bruneau canyon
springtime brandin’
lonesome as the windy ‘wyhee plains
north of elko
southeast idaho
the cold gray sky that never rains
i thank god some things never change

verse 2:
ten thousand acres to a pasture
we gathered heifers until noon
with their babies a bawlin’ ‘long beside them
they’d feel the brandin’ iron soon

owyhee mountains on the skyline
horse sweat and leather on the wind
lone buckaroos driftin’ through the sagebrush
i prayed the day would never end

verse 3:
we branded through the afternoon
ate lunch out on the dusty desert ground
then me and elvin trailed some old dry heifers
back to the old sheep creek corrals

i loaded jasper in the sooner
and bid my new found pardners adios
and i think about them to this day
but it’s the deep, dark bruneau canyon i miss most
