Northwest went on strike last night
Canceled every single flight
They said it could last days or even weeks
Well I say, “That’s okay by me
I accept my destiny
for some reason I’m supposed to be”

Chorus
Stranded in South Dakota
in a big old house with ten Lakota
A better time in life I can’t recall
Stranded in South Dakota
and I don’t care one iota
I might not ever go home at all

There’s Raymond, Billie and Brittany
Shannon, Shelby and Yamani
Calen, Sheldon, Gail and Chris
A dog named Cookie and a cat named Fleas
All here to keep me company
Life just don’t get any better than this

(Repeat Chorus)

We’re sittin’ here watchin’ the Sun go down
20 miles from the nearest town
A blazin’ Sun lights up a prairie sky
One by one the stars appear
And I’m so lucky to be right here
Thank God there’s ‘no Lakota’ for good-bye

Repeat Chorus)
