Mountain Songtext

von State Radio

Up on over the mountain, where it's keep or stay
Causing all that racket boy, they been doing that all day
And if you could find one
I Wouldn't take him on
'Cause those boys are as clever now as the day is long.

But he who holds the north wall
Is gonna' save his mortal kin.

Back from the eastern wars they tell you what they've seen,
Mountains melt for dreadful armies and a new man machine.

And the days they are retreating just as the condor steals his keep
And it's taking me over
It's taking me over
It's taking me over
It's taking me over

We're all useless, here in your new society
Estranged in our own land
On the earth of our father's hand we swear
To remember that were not alone child.

Up on over the mountain East to the end
These eyes are fit for the fair and the knowledge of all men
But let you be forewarned from North to South
Whatever your burn is yours and no one else

And takin' beyond the silent shade
Take your leave young prowler
And takin' beyond the balance made
It's takin' me over...
It's takin' me over...
This crowd of hollowed mirth
It's takin' me over...
It's takin' me over...
It's takin' me over...
It's takin' me over...

We're all useless here in your new society
Estranged in our own land
On the earth of our father's hand
We swear to remember
That we're not alone, child
We're not alone, child
We're not alone, child
We're not alone, child...
