Ride the Mountains Down
I will walk from Mexico I will sail from Spain I will ride the mountains down then And I will ride again I will look for avenues in the rocks and snow I will ask the spirits there They will tell me how to go If any body asks you where I can be found Just tell them I am riding mountains down, I am riding mountains down I’ll climb the rocks that tower up I won’t mind the pain I will breath the evening air Beyond the window pane There is nothing to this life that can not be found when I ride the mountains down when I ride the mountains down Eagle fly and sparrows fly I will also fly Cracks in glaciers Cracks in stone Will not pass me by Rivers, streams and canyons Are places where I’m bound And I will ride the mountains down I will ride the mountains down I will ride the mountains Down from their windy peaks Like the ragged bunch they are And I’m one of the freaks I won’t stop when I am old I will never die Not until each rugged place Looks me in the eye If any body thinks to ask Where I can be found Just tell them I am riding mountains down I am riding mountains down I am riding mountains down mountains down I will ride the mountains down.
