Going To The Sun

GOING TO THE SUN
©David Walburn 2004

INTRO
Gonna build a road Going to the Sun

VERSE
Pack up your horses men move them up the hill
She’ll take a ton of powder and a hundred strong willed
Don’t look up and tell us there’s no place to build a road
Cause we’ll bury disbelievers when that powder blows

CHORUS
We’re gonna build a road Going to the Sun
We’re gonna move mountains one by one
It may take a life time, but when the work is done
We’re gonna build a road Going to the Sun

VERSE
It’s silver dollar wages plus your room and board
You won’t get rich but will receive good standing with the Lord
So swing your hammers steady and be faithful to the task
Cause if we want to get to heaven boys we must cross Logan Pass

CHORUS (Repeat)

VERSE
A million years of limestone must be moved by hand
Wide enough along sheer cliff for thirty men to stand
From St. Mary’s to Lake McDonald along the Garden Wall
Where once only a few could go will now be shared by all

CHORUS (Repeat)

VERSE
Now when that faithful day comes and east side meets the west
We’ll gather on the great divide weary bones will rest
We’ll smoke the pipe of peace and honor all the ones
Who dared to dream the dream of Going to the Sun

CHORUS (Repeat)
