Gunflint Lake

I've got at least a hundred bites over every part of me I need a tick-check in all the places I can't see Sunburn stinging cuz I didn't pay attention And the sweats drip drippin It took two hours longer than it should've to get here The signal dropped out a mile north of town Cubes in the ice bin have already melted And my city minds runnin, runnin' and runnin' But then the sun sets over Gunflint Lake and The fire smoke is winding down our day Hear that loon call singin' aye You're in God's country Let go & let be It's been a year for the books and I don't mean in a good way Really put a hurtin on my motto to keep the faith All this hell a-rising I just need a clear horizon So we pack up the truck and drive To see the sun set over Gunflint Lake and The fire smoke winding down our day Hear that loon call singin' aye You're in God's country Where we wake up with the birds and there's nothin' but quiet And soak up all the peace mother nature's providin' Eagles on the white pines tellin' me somethin' like Soak it all in all the bad with the good (bad with the good) This fickle life is only misunderstood (misunderstood) Sweet's only sweet when you've tasted the sour And it's all going by too fast So watch that sun set over Gunflint Lake Let that fire smoke wind down the day Hear that loon call singin' aye You're in God's country Let go and Let be yah, yah Let go and let be, yah yah yah yah yah yah yah MMmmmm, MMMmmmm yeah OOoo hooo
