"GIVE ME A HOME IN MONTANA"

WHENEVER MY DADDY AND HIS FRIENDS GOT TOGETHER TO ENJOY DADDYS
BATHTUB GIN DURING PROHIBITION, THEY WOULD ALWAYS SING THIS
SONG. THE LYRICS WENT:
GIVE ME A HOME IN MONTANA
A COWBOY FROM MONTANA
AND SEE HOW HAPPY ILL BE.
GIVE ME AN OL HICKRY CABIN
AND I WONT BE GRABBIN
LET THAT MONTANA MOON SHINE ON ME.
ITS A TRUE PARADISE
NEATH THOSE BLUE MOUNTAIN SKIES
I NEVER MORE WILL ROAM.
GIVE ME A HOME IN MONTANA
A COWBOY FROM MONTANA
AND SEE HOW HAPPY ILL BE.
