[Verse 1]
Higher than the Billy Creek pine trees
Stoned like a stack of rocks
I'm gonna go somewhere they can't find me
I'm gonna give it everything I got
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm on the run, I'm lookin' out
Searching for something that I still care about
I'm looking up to the sky
Fire On The Mountain, gonna let it burn so high
[Verse 2]
Shake the dirt off your shoes, come over, take a seat
Knock that chill off your bones
Got food on the fire, can I get you somethin' to eat?
Make yourself at home
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm on the run, I'm lookin' out
Searching for something that I still care about
I'm looking up to the sky
Fire On The Mountain, gonna let it burn so high
[Verse 3]
Baby's gotta head on down
To the Mena Airport
Gonna greet that government plane
Try to stay out of court
And get me somethin' to snort
That C-I-A cocaine
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm on the run, I'm lookin' out
Searching for something that I still care about
I'm looking up to the sky
Fire On The Mountain, gonna let it burn so high
[Verse 4]
Meth shack in the back
Gave me a heart attack
With them bears flyin' up in the air
Smokey come around
Lookin' for a pound
I tell ya, it just ain't fair
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm on the run, I'm lookin' out
Searching for something that I still care about
I'm looking up to the sky
Fire On The Mountain, gonna let it burn so high
[Bridge]
I'm on the run
Lord I hope they don't find me
I'll give it everything I've got
If the creek gets low
I've got nothing to show
Except three hots and a cot
[Verse 5]
Son, I'm higher than that Billy Creek pine tree
Lord, and I'm a-feelin' stoned
If they ever try to come and find me
I ain't leavin' this world alone
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm on the run, I'm lookin' out
Searching for something that I still care about
I'm looking up to the sky
Fire On The Mountain, gonna let it burn so high
