Teton by Andrea von Kampen Lyrics

I got off at Jackson Hole
There was a nice strong man in a blue strong coat
He said I’ll help you
Mama said, “beware of nice men
Funny thing is they never seem to listen”
I could take you up to Teton or show you Gros Ventre
I’m a man who knows his station
And I won’t be around for long

These low lying valleys contain
River and streams
If Lewis and Clark could navigate
Why can’t we?

I got lost in Coeur d'Alene
There was a miner man willing to share his name
He said I’ll love you
I could find a lot of silver
And buy you the fineries
I’m a man who knows his station
And I won’t wait around past spring
These low lying valleys contain
River and streams
If Lewis and Clark could navigate
Why can’t we?

I got off in Calgary
