Mendocino County Blue Lyrics & Chords By Steep Canyon Rangers

Half day south of the Oregon line
Somewhere between a dream and a friend of mine
There’s a song played out in the California heat
Where the rain won’t touch
The road stretches out where the river unwinds
Red tail rider from the highway sign
You let the windows down and you’re headed right into
Mendocino County Blues
Big wheel down
Little wheel roll
Make a sound that’ll shake your soul
There’s an eye in the sky everywhere you go
They’re coming around
You can blame it on the money
But it’s your own damn fault
Trouble ain’t trouble
Til you get caught
Just one more ride and we’ll have it made
Floating cool as the cotton in the Manzanita shade
Starlight Stella’s got the mojo touch
With the sandman’s hand man she don’t need much
She makes the sugary sweet when he reaches right through
