Lyrics

Back on the Mountain

Got to get back on the mountain

Got to get back on the hill

With my dog-eyed country woman

She know how to cure my ill

Ain't it just like Adele

Go on and change your name

So now I got to call her Carmen

But I love her just the same

Give yourself over

And over again

And I'm tired of starting over

Yes, I think my days

Out on the run are coming to an end

Got to get back on the mountain

Got to get back on still

With a bourbon whiskey freezing

If you got time to kill

I got to get back on the river

I got to get back on the land

Get myself stoned

A little down home

Even if it's second hand

Give yourself over

And over again

And I'm tired of starting over

Guess I think my days

Out on the run are coming to an end

Got to get back on the mountain

Oh yeah

Got to get back on the hill

I got to get back on the mountain

Got to get back on the hill
