"South Dakota Wild One" lyrics

"South Dakota Wild One"

She was a South Dakota wild one
Grew up on the hippie farm
Just outside of a small town
Where life can grab you by the arm
I never knew about her daddy
But her momma had two strong arms
And a nice guitar pickin' man
Who tried to keep her warm

Johnny was a punk rock boy
That had a soft spot in his heart
He knew who he liked
And he knew who he did not
One day he went up there
And I never saw him come back home
I hope she caught him
And stopped two tires going down the road

East River on the prairie
Out where the cottonwoods bloom
Is a bad land for a broken man
Who never planned on finding you
She was the real thing mama
Crazy love in her heart
Welcome in anyone
Ever need a place to fall apart

She was a South Dakota wild one
Grew up on the hippie farm
Just outside of a small town
Where life will grab you by the arm
I never knew about her daddy
But her momma had two strong arms
And a nice guitar pickin' man
Who tried to play along
