lyrics

I ain't ever been to North Dakota
But I got an idea in my head of what I think it's like
Barren Earth and this dusty, dusty land
And it's full of men - yeah it's full of men, with all sorts of plans

They say these Bakken Lands they are a wild, wild west
Anything goes, there's no code and there ain't no time for rest
Muddy pits and it's so Goddamn cold
If you're willing to get dirty - if you're willing to get dirty, there's nothing that can't be sold

What was poisoned here
Lasts forever dear

Now I don't need to hear all of the details
I know the drilling is deep, so little you can keep but it's something you can resell
Abandoned wells and this broken & busted soil
I know the money's good - I know the money's good, but you're not ready for the recoil

What was poisoned here
Lasts forever dear

With every fissure & every crack
Every decision you won't take back ... home
