I wish I could
take her with me
Chasin' the sunrise
down the road
I hate the way
I make her miss me
Almost as much
as I miss her
when I'm gone
Now I drive me
down the road
Lord be with me
as I go
Keep your angels close to
where both our suns set
As she lays her
down to sleep
Give her peace
like mountain streams
'til I get back to where
she's dreamin'
on my chest
God bless the West
Bless the West
Lord I pray
you never change her
And keep her heart
wide open wild
And make her blue sky smile
my anchor
And keep this cowboy
turnin' 'round
and rollin' down
those back-home miles
Now I drive me
down the road
Lord be with me
as I go
Keep your angels close to
where both our suns set
As she lays her
down to sleep
Give her peace
like mountain streams
'til I get back
to where she's dreamin'
on my chest
God bless the West
Bless the West
Somewhere north
of Devil's Tower
Somewhere south
of Heaven
As long as she's out there
that's where I'm headin'
Now I drive me
down the road
Lord be with me
as I go
Keep your angels close to
where both our suns set
As she lays her
down to sleep
Give her peace
like mountain streams
'til I get back to
where she's dreamin'
on my chest
God bless the West
Bless the West
God bless the West
God bless the West
God bless the West
Lord I'd die
