Above the Timberline

from Bad Hay - the home recordings by Jared Rogerson

	/

lyrics

The city offers you convenience/ This ol' mountain offers you no lenience/ But it's the life I choose to lead
Peace of mind's what I receive

(Chorus)
I make my home above the timberline/ In my saddlebags who knows what you’ll find/ On my trusty steed I've got everything I need/ Up here on the great divide

I went to college searching for my way/ Textbooks for rodeos seemed a pretty even trade/ Well I guess fate can handle each and every day/ I wouldn't have it any other way/ now

(Chorus)
I make my home above the timberline/ In my saddle bags who knows what you'll find/ On my trusty steed I've got everything I need/ Up here on the great divide

(Bridge)
There's bighorn sheep/ Look, there's an eagle flying down there/ We got fish to eat and up here there ain't no bears

It's the place that I reside, up above the timberline/ Fates in charge of everyday, I wouldn't have it any other way
