Jim Boyd - Powwow Highway 49 lyrics

Well I left my broke down pickup

Down at Crow Fair

And I'm Colville Reservation Bound tonight

Well I live my life from day to day

Ya hand to mouth the only way

When pay day comes it's powwow 49

Well I'll fix my truck

This week in time for rollin'

And I'll work all week

And get my sleep tonight

But when Friday comes I'll go my way

Cause I don't know no other way

When pay day comes it's highway 49

Chorus:

Ya make my reservations for the road now

Cause every weekend

Holds a powwow in summertime

Gonna hit that celebration

With a vengeance

Gonna roll down powwow highway 49

Gonna roll down powwow highway 49

Well I'll keep my eyes wide

Open for the locals

Cause my reservation ride does 85

I've got lots more miles here left to go

And a couple months before the snow

So I'm headin' down ole highway 49

Chorus

Ya, Ya, Ya, powwow highway

Ya, Ya, Ya, powwow highway
