King Of The Mountain |
Walking through the high dry grass |
Pushing my way through slow |
Yellow belly black snake sleeping on a red rock |
Waiting for the stranger to go |
Sugar train stops at the crossing |
Cane cockies cursing below |
Bad storm coming |
Better run to the top of the mountain |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Rain in the valley below |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Rain in the valley below |
Well, you could say you’re Peter |
Say you’re Paul |
Don’t put me up on your bedroom wall |
Call me king of the mountain |
Blacksmith fires up the bellows |
Cane cutters burning the load |
Workers of the world |
Run to the top of the mountain |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Rain in the valley below |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Rain in the valley below |
Well, you could say you’re Peter |
Say you’re Paul |
Don’t put me up on your bedroom wall |
Call me king of the mountain |
Well, I can’t take the hands from my face |
There are some things we can’t replace, yeah |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Rain in the valley below |
Mountain in the shadow of light |
Well, you could say you’re Peter |
Say you’re Paul |
Don’t put me up on your bedroom wall |
Call me king of the mountain |
Well, you could say you’re Peter |
Say you’re Paul |
Don’t put me up on your bedroom wall |
Call me the king of the mountain |
Over liquid tarmac wastelands of cactus and heat |
Down cobblestone alleyways of washing day sheets |
Up ghost prairie mountains of sunset and space |
Down the road, a familiar place, across the wilderness |
Out further than the bush, I will follow you |
I will follow you, I will follow you |
