blue skies of montana
milsap, ronnie
once i ruled the blue skies of montana
they once belonged to me and the buffalo
this was my father's land 100 years ago
it was wild then ohh lord it was free
and the the covered wagons
hungry for the yellow gold
for many years we fought the war
under the blue skies of montana
but the white man's gun was just too much for us to handle
we signed a treaty to end bloodshed and bring joy
but they took our lands they stole our montana blue skies
the white man's paper was full of lies
