i have known mountain time
walking slow in the river
i'm gonna lie my head under the sun
i've seen your dull eyes shine
through the fog of drinking wine
and i (couldn't i?) feel alive
try knowing coming up will get you down
horizons you have seen getting closer
and the last thing in your way will touch your liver
why oh why?
i have thumbed out from nipigon
with a beard stuck to my chin
i'm goin to my town
the place where i was born
i've got friends who fuck my girlfriends
enemies who buy me beer
and i (shouldn't i?) be surprised
try knowing coming up will get you down
horizons you have seen getting closer
and the last thing in your way will send a shiver down your spine
