If you send me out to the morning To the morning Because you have a message That needs sent to your mother I'll go over the mountains Across every range that I can find If I don't turn in the evening In the evening I'll wake up early Settle the ground Work my fields And bring back a bounty in my wagon to you And I will work it through When I'm held up in the ridges It's the afternoon And I'll be tilling till the morning And I will bring you messages from the caves and from the summit When I hear you call me I will turn my feet back to you Nothing will keep me when I hear from you Nothing will keep me when I hear from you And I will work it through And I'll be running in the morning I will work it through And I'll be running in the morning soon And if I catch the sun in my eyes And if I lose sight would you keep on a lantern for me Or is it too late Athos has thrown a mountain at me And I can't barter or trade out of this one Is it too late And I remembered when I saw you in the morning And I feel you in the wind that rustles the grain So I'll take this passage through the mountains Athos I'm not afraid this time Athos I'm not afraid this time And I should have never have forgot But I did Athos I'm not afraid this time
