Mountain Music Lyrics

[Intro]
You see that mountain over there? Yeah?
Well, one of these days I'm going to climb that mountain

[Chorus]
Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I'll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway

[Verse]
Drift away like Tom Sawyer, ride a raft with old Huck Finn
Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle, daze dreaming again

[Chorus]
Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I'll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway

[Verse 2]
Swim across the river, just to prove that I'm a man
Spend the day being lazy, just being nature's friend
Climb a long tall hickory. Bend it over, skinning cats
Playing baseball with chert rocks, using sawmill slabs for bats

[Bridge]
Play some back-home, come-on music
That comes from the heart
Play something with lots of feeling
Because that's where music has to start

[Chorus]
Oh, play me some mountain music
Like grandma and grandpa used to play
Then I'll float on down the river
To a Cajun hideaway

[Outro]
Oh play me mountain music
Oh play me mountain music
Oh play me mountain music
Oh play me mountain music
