Track 3 from Preaching to the Perverted, LWM008 2002

Private Idaho (Baynes)
Brother Baynes: Vocals, Acoustic Guitar
Brother Lambert: Mandolin, Backing Vocals
Brother Ablitt: Bass

He was born into an english night
Some forty years ago
But in his heart the open plains
Are the home he'll never know

*and in his dreams
He rides the range
Way down to mexico
Cause he's a nobody in england
But a hero in his private idaho

The saturday morning picture show
Told him when he was small
Of a way of life he longed to live
And he heard the old west call

*chorus

Well the south coast does'nt hold much
When you long for tennessee
And the legends that he dreams of
Are living long and fighting hard
And forever there inside his memory

*chorus
