Mountaintop

[Verse 1] Well, the old man called me to his dying bed There's only one thing in this world I like to see, he said I tried so many times but I've never done it Often made the climb but never reached the summit So I could look down on this pissant little town [Chorus] I took one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) But I could not reach that mountaintop I took one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) But I could not reach that mountaintop I couldn't reach the mountaintop [Verse 2] So I picked him up and put him on my back And strapped him in just like a hiking pack I took off up the hill at a steady pace I said don't die on me now, we're gonna win this race So we can look down on that pissant little town [Chorus] I'll take one step (higher, higher) Another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop I take one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop I'm gonna reach the mountaintop [Guitar solo] [False Outro] I take one step (higher, higher) Another step (higher, higher) Another step (higher, higher) One more step (higher, higher) Take one step (higher, higher) Yet another step (higher, higher) One step (higher, higher) Take a step (higher, higher) Come on [?] (higher, higher) Aw, come on feets (higher, higher) Aw, don't fail me now (higher, higher) [?] (higher, higher) (Higher, higher) (Higher, higher) (Higher, higher) [Chorus] I take one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop I take one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop I take one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop I take one step (higher, higher) And another step (higher, higher) 'Til I reach that mountaintop Reach the mountaintop [Outro] The mountaintop (higher, higher) The mountaintop (higher, higher) The mountaintop (higher, higher) The mountaintop (higher, higher) The mountaintop (higher, higher)
