lyrics

Take Me to the Mountain

take me to the mountain but not yet but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet

let me roll another cigarette a cigarette
take me to the mountain but not yet
my best stuff is still cookin’ in the shed in the shed
take me to the mountain but not yet

take me to the mountain it’s where I long to go
to your golden palace on them wings as white as snow
let me live a little longer and I’ll leave without regret
take me to the mountain but not yet

I like “Easy Goer” in the fifth in the fifth
take me to the mountain but not yet
Lord I’ve just got a feeling ‘bout this bet ‘bout this bet
take me to the mountain but not yet

take me to the mountain it’s where I long to go
to your golden palace on them wings as white as snow
let me live a little longer and I’ll leave without regret
take me to the mountain but not yet

I’ve never had Suzanna in my bed in my bed
take me to the mountain but not yet
her eyes are green her hair is autumn red autumn red
take me to the mountain but not yet

take me to the mountain it’s where I long to go
to your golden palace on them wings as white as snow
let me live a little longer and I’ll leave without regret
take me to the mountain but not yet

take me to the mountain but not yet but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet but not yet
take me to the mountain but not yet
