Idaho Lyrics - Josh Ritter

All that love all those mistakes 

What else can a poor man make? 

So I gave up a life of crime 

I gave it to a friend of mine 

Something else was on my mind 

The only ghost I'm haunted by 

I hear her howling down below 

Idaho oh Idaho 

Wolves oh wolves oh can't you see? 

Ain't no wolf can sing like me 

And if it could then I suppose 

He belongs in Idaho 

Packs of dogs and cigarettes 

For those who ain't done packing yet 

My clothes are packed and I want to go 

Idaho oh Idaho

Out at sea for seven years 

I got your letter in Tangier 

Thought that I'd been on a boat 

Til that single word you wrote 

That single word it landlocked me 

Turned the masts to cedar trees 

And the winds to gravel roads 

Idaho oh Idahoe
