That's some real high lonesome country out there Jamey...and I think this song conveys that picture pretty well. Scenery rollin' by...lyrics spin in your head as the landscape reflects off your sunglasses. Good tune..

Really nice poem and this place is in North Dakota? Beats the fast city by a country 100 miles. Great song Jamie.
