Been through the Southwest desert,
Been through the Texas hills,
Through a snowy Teluride...
One blow-out on it's downside.

How's it feel to be so free
With a wolf for company...
I'll tell you later on, my friend,
Miles from here, around that bend.

Never saw how close I was
Until the tire threw gravel...
I looked down two thousand feet...
Spun the wheel...God was sweet.

Never will forget that day
Time kindly stopped for me...
I had other plans, you see...
My life planned for no delay.

How's it feel to be so free
With a wolf for company...
I'll tell you later on, my friend,
Miles from here, around that bend.
