Lyrics

35 degrees for the last six days sure as hell hasnt hell the Blaremore blaze

But I can see that its raining in the hills tonight

All wrapped up in a blanket of haze, fifty thousand acres of timbre raised

But I can see that its raining in the hills tonight

I never found salvation in Jesus, whiskey or pills,

I never found any money or the good book, I found it here in these hills

And I belong to the church of the long grass, in the parish of the Porcupine Hills

Where the Grass can grow as tall as an old timers tale, some say longer still

And I belong to the church of the long grass, in the parish of the Porcupine Hills

Ive always seen this land as holy, I guess I always will

Siddy was my girl form the age of fifteen, a home coming and a beauty queen

And I hear shes still reigning in the town tonight

She fancied a fellow, buddy and mean, sad left me cryin like some old has been

And I hear shes still reigning in the town tonight

Blue can be, a little temperamental, hes a reliable steel

If you reign em tight, and sit tall in the saddle hell give you what you need
