My soul is in the mountain, my heart is in the land
I'm lost here in the city, There's so much I don't understand
There's a quiet desperation, Coming over me, Coming over me
I've got to leave I can't stay another day
There's an emptiness inside of me
I can't bear the loneliness out here
There's another place I've got to be, .. Another place I've got to be
I long for you Dakota The smell of sweet grass on the plain
I see too much meanness, And I feel too much pain
And there's a quiet desperation, Coming over me, Coming over me
I've got to leave I can't stay another day
There's an emptiness inside of me
I can't bear the loneliness out here
There's another place I've got to be, .. Another place I've got to be
