[Verse 1]
Coffee on the porch rail
Boots by the back door
Pink sky over old fence posts
Kids running ‘cross the floor
You kiss my cheek
Say “hurry”
Sun’s already on the rise
Dust kicks up behind the pickup
As we roll into that wide blue sky
[Chorus]
This is our forever
Out on the Montana plains
Branding iron
Summer sweat
And homegrown last names
Little church
Friday lights
Neighbors who all know
Every dream we’re raising
Row by row
If the good Lord’s willing and the creek don’t change
We’ll spend our whole lives loving
On these Montana plains
[Verse 2]
Auction day in town square
Laughter by the feed store
Old men leaning on tailgates
Telling what the land’s been through before
Kids chase the county fair lights
Win a goldfish in a jar
We drive back under a quilt of stars
Counting blessings in this old farm car
[Chorus]
This is our forever
Out on the Montana plains
Branding iron
Summer sweat
And homegrown last names
Little church
Friday lights
Neighbors who all know
Every dream we’re raising
Row by row
If the good Lord’s willing and the creek don’t change
We’ll spend our whole lives loving
On these Montana plains
[Bridge]
Someday these hands’ll tremble
Someday the kids’ll drive away
But they’ll still hear our shadows calling
In the wind across this hay
We’ll be rocking on that same porch
Gray hair
Same last name
Smiling at a thousand sunsets
Over our Montana plains
[Chorus]
This is our forever
Out on the Montana plains
Branding iron
Summer sweat
And homegrown last names
Little church
Friday lights
Neighbors who all know
Every dream we’re raising
Row by row
If the good Lord’s willing and the creek don’t change
We’ll spend our whole lives loving
On these Montana plains (oh, these Montana plains)
