On The Mountain

Two villages, two sides
One mountain did divide
They said choose us, and I asked why
They said you stand for nothing otherwise

Oh on the mountain, on the mountain
I’m on the mountain, I
Yeah, on the mountain high
I spy with my little eye

Two warring tribes
Take each other’s lives
But high on the mountain
On the mountain I have peace of mind

Something coming down the way
Oh it’s gonna shake the day

So proud of their divide
They didn’t notice the water rise
Swallowed both their tribes
Almost every life
While they were high on pride
I was dry on the mountainside

Paddling out, oh now they’re paddling out
And here I’m looking down, holding my hand out

Oh on the mountain, on the mountain
I’m on the mountain, I
Yeah, on the mountain high
I spy with my little eye

Two warring tribes
Take each other’s lives
But high on the mountain
On the mountain I have peace of mind

Up on the mountain, on the mountain
Yeah, oh the mountain high
I spy with my third eye
Rebuilding one big tribe

We care for every life
We live on mountain pride
We all have peace of mind
Way up here on the mountain high

On the mountain high, mm mm mm
I have peace of mind
