Great Divide Lyrics - Jack Ingram

They still listen to high school football 

On the radio in West Texas 

The lights still shine bright 

Every Friday Night 

And you can drive 90 miles an hour 

Down the highway straight through Sisco 

The cops are at the ball game, its gettin' tight 

And the sky gets wider and wider 

You disappear like the day 

Into the Great Divide you fade away 

Its another world all together 

In the middle of God's country 

Smells like money, smells like shit, yea it smells like hell 

But when the cattle's all together 

And the pump-jacks all are movin' 

And the cotton's all in bloom 

And it smells like nothin' else

And the sky gets wider and wider 

Just like a brand new day 

Out in the Great Divide you fade away 

Its the land of my people 

Dreamers come out here to find a bigger piece of sky 

Its all the winners and all the losers 

Real good people, just like you and I 

Yea but nothin's really changed much 

As you drive down I-20 

Mexicans still work out in the field 

And everybody's dirty 

Man, their all just a bunch of gamblers 

And some got rich, but their gamblers still 

ANd the sky gets wider and wider 

Today's gunna be your day 

Out in the Great Divide you face away
