[Intro | Fast open-tuned fingerpicking, a whoop, meadow wind] [Verse 1 | 1B] Come out along the Lamar in the cold end of June Pronghorn in the sagebrush and the meadowlarks in tune Where the whole slope turns to lupine like the sky came down to graze You'll wade in to your knees, love, and I'll lose track of the days [Chorus | 1B lead, gang harmonies, stomps] Lie down in the lupines, love, lie down in the blue Every leaf is holding up a drop of rain for you Let the geysers keep their schedules and the bison wander through Lie down in the lupines, love — I'll lie down there with you [Verse 2] They named it for the wolf 'cause they swore it robbed the ground But the lupine fed the meadow every summer it came round And they named the wolf a robber, ran him out with trap and gun Now he's singing in Lamar again — some mistakes can be undone [Chorus] Lie down in the lupines, love, lie down in the blue Every leaf is holding up a drop of rain for you Let the geysers keep their schedules and the bison wander through Lie down in the lupines, love — I'll lie down there with you [Bridge | Half-time, 1A falsetto harmonies] Now it's October and the blue has gone to gold Every pod has snapped and scattered like a secret being told Seeds flung out across the hillside, far as they can go There's a June beneath the frost, love — and that June's already sown [Final Chorus | Double-time, harmonica, full stomp] Lie down in the lupines, love, lie down in the blue Every leaf is holding up a drop of rain for you Let the geysers keep their schedules and the bison wander through I'll be lying in the lupines in the June I promised you (the June I promised you)
