Lyrics
Buddy cut out of Cherry Creek
Only been back one week
When Buddy broke down, stole some cash
Put it in his pocket real fast
Buddy heard the cop cars whine
So he took the road to Medicine Line
Buddy got tired of feeling chained
Like a junkyard dog left in the rain
Scraps of dreams, scraps explode
On an indian rez, where a hard wind blows
Buddy heard the sirens whine
So he turned the wheel towards Medicine Line
Where the ghosts, and the copperheads and the whipoorwills
Cry up in the hills
Found Buddy's truck on an old dirt road
Couldn't even track him in the snow
Cause Buddy'd crossed Medicine Line
A place your enemies'll never find
Buddy heard the sirens whine
So he took the road to Medicine Line
Where the ghosts and the copperheads and the whipoorwills
Cry up in these hills
They still talk of Buddy 'round here
How he just disappeared
Out there past Medicine Line
Where you disappear like ghost in the sky
Buddy heard the sirens whine
So he took the road to Medicine Line
