South Dakota Wild One

She was a South Dakota wild one

Grew up on the hippie farm

Just outside of a small town

Where life can grab you by the arm

I never knew about her daddy

But her momma had two strong arms

And a nice guitar pickin' man

Who tried to keep her warm

Johnny was a punk rock boy

That had a soft spot in his heart

He knew who he liked

And he knew who he did not

One day he went up there

And I never saw him come back home

I hope she caught him

And stopped two tires going down the road

East River on the prairie

Out where the cottonwoods bloom

Is a bad land for a broken man

Who never planned on finding you

She was the real thing mama

Crazy love in her heart

Welcome in anyone

Ever need a place to fall apart

She was a South Dakota wild one

Grew up on the hippie farm

Just outside of a small town

Where life will grab you by the arm

I never knew about her daddy

But her momma had two strong arms

And a nice guitar pickin' man

Who tried to play along
