Idaho

Idaho, let me go

I feel so very far from home

Your folks are kind

If a little crazy

Not unlike my own sweet lady

Well the hotel's clean, not too noisy

The trouble is, it's in Boise, Idaho

Idaho, I suppose

You look quite pretty all suede in snow

But just right now, I'd rather be

Sitting on my sofa with a cup of tea

Watching premiership football, the proper kind

Something that y'all just can't find in Idaho

Idaho

Idaho, I'm down so low

I wanna pack my things and go

Find a flight, make a connection

It terrifies me but I'll make an exception

Just to hold my child and say

"Shh, what's that noise?"

She wants her daddy but he's in Boise, Idaho

Idaho

Idaho, this I know

It's time ten times warmer in New Mexico

But, may I say

It's plain that you are ten times cooler

Than the state of Utah

Well I miss my girl, hey

That's my choice, see?

Without her, this whole world is Boise, Idaho
