Riding the trails
through the hills with my horse
I've never seen the skies any bluer
Thinking about all my friends in the north
Wondering what they've been doing
Hey! I've never
seen brighter days
Where we weren't doing something
Like tumbling weeds in Shimnecon
Oh Shimnecon
Say, I just remembered
one time
Back at Okemos Road's beginning
There's a ghost you'll hear them say
That walks among the living
Be respectful of the life
That Mother Nature's giving
The Chief himself is watching you, so…
Keep yourself a' singing
Keep yourself a' singing
Hiding away from
the crush of the world
Searching the woods for his gravestone
Feeling my spirit in touch with the earth
Taking the time to be reborn
Hey! I've never
seen brighter days
Where we weren't doing something
Like tumbling weeds in Shimnecon
Oh Shimnecon
