From Stanley up to Sunbeam from Clayton on to Chalice, Heading down the Salmon river To a rangeland palace Sage brush all around
Where the deer and elk do roam This place I may call home Where the flatlands stretch for miles And the mountains touch the sky And the sun always shines
Chorus: In Idaho, ohhhh In Idaho, ohhhh In Idaho, ohhhh In Idaho
My mind is filled with images Of saw-tooth bridges Where the snow melt forms Cold mountain creeks Flowin' through the valley down below
I was standing 'neath the pine trees On a bed of wild grass This place has captured me, well far I can see There ain't no place I'd rather be.
