About the song
Travelling through Wyoming, reading about 'Beaver' Dick Leigh.
Lyrics
I am just a visitor
To the land of the free
A stranger in the wilderness
From my home across the sea
And I stand upon this mountain
With snow on the ground
Beside peaceful waters
Where nothing makes a sound
Jenny Lake lies next to Leigh
Down in Jackson Hole
Jenny Lake lies next to Leigh
God rest her soul
I came to Crazy Woman
Outside of Buffalo
And I saw myself riding
In the canyon below
And I rode all the way
To Medicine Wheel
And I woke from my dream
Wondering how that might feel
I moved beneath a big sky
As far as the eye could see
Through each and every hour
Just to reach my destiny
And I moved among the spirits
Upon the sacred ground
Where broken arrows fall
Among the lost and found
I followed Snake River
Where she rolled so fast
From the hills to the valley
Where I came to rest at last
But I was just a visitor
To the land of the free
A stranger in the wilderness
From my home across the sea
To the land of the free
A stranger in the wilderness
From my home across the sea
And I stand upon this mountain
With snow on the ground
Beside peaceful waters
Where nothing makes a sound
Jenny Lake lies next to Leigh
Down in Jackson Hole
Jenny Lake lies next to Leigh
God rest her soul
I came to Crazy Woman
Outside of Buffalo
And I saw myself riding
In the canyon below
And I rode all the way
To Medicine Wheel
And I woke from my dream
Wondering how that might feel
I moved beneath a big sky
As far as the eye could see
Through each and every hour
Just to reach my destiny
And I moved among the spirits
Upon the sacred ground
Where broken arrows fall
Among the lost and found
I followed Snake River
Where she rolled so fast
From the hills to the valley
Where I came to rest at last
But I was just a visitor
To the land of the free
A stranger in the wilderness
From my home across the sea
