  • He was born in the bitterroot valley in the early morning rain
  • Wild geese over the water headin north and home again
  • Bringin a warm wind from the south
  • Bringin the first taste of the spring
  • His mother took him to her breast and softly she did sing
  • Oh montana, give this child a home
  • Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
  • Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
  • Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
  • His mother died that summer and he never learned to cry
  • He never knew his father and he never did ask why
  • He never knew the answers that would make an easy way
  • But he learned to know the wilderness and to be a man that way
  • His mothers brother took him in to family and his home
  • Gave him a hand that he could lean on and a strength to call his own
  • And he learned to be a farmer and he learned to love the land
  • And he learned to read the seasons and he learned to make a stand
  • Oh montana, give this child a home
  • Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
  • Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
  • Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
  • On the eve of his 21st birthday he set out on his own
  • He was 30 years and runnin when he found his way back home
  • Ridin a storm across the mountains and an aching in his heart
  • Said he came to turn the pages and to make a brand new start
  • Now he never told a story of the time that he was gone
  • Some say he was a lawyer, some say he was a john
  • There was somethin in the city that he said he couldnt breathe
  • And there was somethin in the country that he said he couldnt leave
  • Oh montana, give this child a home
  • Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
  • Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
  • Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
  • Now some say he was crazy and theyre glad that he is gone
  • But some of us miss him and well try to carry on
  • Giving a voice to the forest, giving a voice to the dawn
  • Giving a voice to the wilderness and the land that he lived on
  • Oh montana, give this child a home
  • Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
  • Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
  • Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
  • Oh montana, give this child a home
  • Give him the love of a good family and a woman of his own
  • Give him a fire in his heart, give him a light in his eyes
  • Give him the wild wind for a brother and the wild montana skies
