[Verse 1]
I rode into Sioux Land with dust on my boots
The sun was my shadow, it never gave truce
A tumbleweed whispered a secret or two
Said "this town's got a story waiting for you"
[Chorus]
Sioux Land, oh Sioux Land
Where the sky shakes hands with the sand
I came with a heart and left with a brand
Sioux Land, oh Sioux Land
[Verse 2]
The saloon doors creaked like an old broken tune
The barkeep poured trouble straight into my spoon
Cards on the table and dice in the dark
The devil was laughing, but I left my mark
[Chorus]
Sioux Land, oh Sioux Land
Where the sky shakes hands with the sand
I came with a heart and left with a brand
Sioux Land, oh Sioux Land
[Verse 3]
Girl in a red dress whispered my name
Her smile was a question, her touch was a flame
The sheriff said "boy, you best ride away"
But my boots, they had roots, they begged me to stay
