I was climbin' on a mountain, hangin' my face down Taking it easy, slowing my pace down Staring at the rocks growing under my feet The grass is green and the skies are yellow You're a gal and I'm a fellow Why don't you come mountain climbin' with me? As I was climbin' that dusty stair Wind was a-blowin' through my rusty hair Blowin my mind, crackin my will I was sittin at the roadside, eating my dinner Deep inside I know I'm no sinner I packed my belongings and I carried on up The grass is green and the skies are yellow You're a gal and I'm a fellow Why don't you come mountain climbin' with me? As I was crawlin' that snakelike trail Sand was a-piling neath my broken nails I stumbled on the ground and I started to cry My tears formed a river deep and wide You were standing on the other side Still as a rock, gazin' at me I jumped in the river but the stream was too strong Took me to the place I truly belong Guess I done wrong Guess I done wrong The grass is green and the skies are yellow You're a gal and I'm a fellow Why don't you come mountain climbin' with me?
