Lyrics
The Mountain Low
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I could fuck a mountain
Lord, I would fuck a mountain
And I'd do it with a woman in the valley
If she lives in the valley
O, if she lives in the valley
The mighty, mighty valley of the sun
Yes, if she lives there quietly
And goes to bed there nightly
I'd tower over peaks and in the sky
Well, she comes tumbling to me
It seems every night there for me
With a different face and legs that will not quit
Now I'm waiting on a friend
To give me advice if I ask him
And his presence will tell me what I need to know
I would sell my belongings
In the mountains where she's living
Just to be there when she comes every morning
