The Gift - Ian Tyson[00:00:00]

In old St Louis over in Missouri[00:00:06]

The mighty Mississippi well it rolls and flows [00:00:16]

A son was born to Mary Russell[00:00:21]

And it starts the legend every cowboy knows [00:00:27]

Young kid Russell was born to wander [00:00:32]

Ever westward he was bound to roam [00:00:40]

Just a kid of sixteen in 1880 [00:00:45]

Up in wild Montana he found his home [00:00:51]

God made Montana for the wild man [00:00:56]

For the Piegan and the Sioux and Crow [00:01:02]

Saved His greatest gift for Charlie [00:01:08]

Said “Get her all down before she goes [00:01:13]

You gotta get her all down[00:01:19]

'cause she's bound to go ”[00:01:21]

God hung the stars over Judith Basin [00:01:27]

God put the magic in young Charlie's hands [00:01:33]

And all was seen and all remembered [00:01:39]

Every shining mountain every longhorn brand [00:01:44]

He could paint the light on horsehide shining [00:01:50]

The great passing herds of the buffalo [00:01:57]

And a cow camp cold on a rainy morning [00:02:02]

And the twisting wrist of the Houlihan throw [00:02:08]

God made Montana for the wild man [00:02:14]

For the Piegan and the Sioux and Crow [00:02:19]

Saved His greatest gift for Charlie [00:02:25]

Said “Get her all down before she goes [00:02:30]

You gotta get her all down[00:02:36]

'cause she's bound to go ”[00:02:39]

When the Lord called Charlie to his home up yonder[00:02:42]

He said “Kid Russell I got a job for you [00:03:00]

You're in charge of sunsets up in old Montana[00:03:06]

'Cause I can't paint them quite as good as you [00:03:11]

And when you're done we'll go out and have a few [00:03:17]

And Nancy Russell will make sure it's just two ”[00:03:23]

God made Montana for the wild man [00:03:28]

For the Piegan and the Sioux and Crow [00:03:34]

Saved His greatest gift for Charlie [00:03:39]

Said “Get her all down before she goes [00:03:45]

You gotta get her all down[00:03:51]

'cause she's bound to go ”[00:03:53]
