Tom Rush - Merrimack County Lyrics

Way up north by the ice bound oceanI was born I was bornWay up north in the Merrimack countyThat's my home that's my homeWhen I was younger and in my schoolingI walked the mountains made of stoneThe distance sang about tomorrowAnd I did wish I was grown and goneWell as I grew indeed I rambledOut along the open roadThere I learned the rainbow circleIt's truly said that's a sign of stormNow I'm old my dreams they wanderFar away in yesterdayI'm going home to the Merrimack countyAnd find the grass that hides my graveSo let the birds fly down the valleyLet the storms roam on the seaI was born to the rainbow circleStoney mountain that's home to me
