The Mountain Song |
I came here from the city |
A thousand miles away |
I came just for a little while |
You know I never meant to stay |
I meant to take my pleasure |
Have a good time and be gone |
But I fell in love with a lady |
Now I sing a mountain song |
I listened to the music |
Of the night wind in the pines |
I’ve seen the quiet splendor |
Of a field of columbine |
I skied on crystal pathways |
To a mountain peak so tall |
And I walked the mighty summits |
With the one who made it all |
And I fell in love with a lady |
'Cause I’ve seen her at her best |
And I’ve walked her wild and rugged paths |
Through her open wilderness |
And now I never can betray her |
Steal her riches and be gone |
'Cause when you fall in love with a lady |
You gotta sing a mountain song |
Now people come from everywhere |
To see what they can find |
And some take lots of pictures |
And some just take their time |
But they’re some who take her beauty |
That can’t be bought or sold |
And they think of only money |
While destroying wealth untold |
But you fall in love with a lady |
When you’ve slept upon her breast |
And when you’ve walked her wild and rugged paths |
To her open wilderness |
And you never can betray her |
Steal her riches and be gone |
'Cause when you fall in love with a lady |
You gotta sing a mountain song |
