Mountain Girl

[Verse 1]

Livin' in the age of the great uncertain man

Where computers are the brains and we all just lend a hand

I headed up to Wharncliffe with my obsolescent heart

And my Brother Correctronics and my banjo-slash-guitar

[Verse 2]

I’ve been lookin' for a love like a phone stuck to a wall

Where she wraps the spiral cord around her finger while we talk

And laughs at me while I shiver when we're naked in the river

Takes me home and makes me dinner, leaves me baptized by it all

[Chorus]

I want a mountain girl, beautiful and plain

I wanna take her hand, give it a golden ring

I wanna die up on a hill, come on, Lord, let’s make a deal

I want a mountain girl to love me

[Verse 3]

I bet that it was rainin' on the day that she was born

And the blue skies went a-hidin' in her eyes to pass the storm

And I know she's up here somewhere, just lonesome as can be

And she's waterin' her garden and a-waitin' just for me

[Chorus]

I want a mountain girl, beautiful and plain

I wanna take her hand, give it a golden ring

I wanna die up on a hill, come on, Lord, let's make a deal

I want a mountain girl to love me

I want a mountain girl to love me

I want a mountain girl to love me
