The Mountain

Well I bet my soul on a six string gamble

And I climb like hell through the brush and the bramble

Even though I had my doubts, told myself don't look down

And I turned that hill into a pile of gravel

It was only a mountain, nothing but a big ol' rock

Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop

It just took a little step, a right then a left

Then a couple million more, who's counting?

Yeah, that's only a mountain

Well you better know the bottom if you wanna be a climber

'Cause there's always another one a little bit higher

Just when I think I'm finally done I'm staring at another one

So I reach down deep and I lace 'em up tighter

It was only a mountain, nothing but a big ol' rock

Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop

It just took a little step, a right then a left

Then a couple million more, who's counting?

Yeah, that's only a mountain

Now I'm standing at the top with the sweat behind me

Yeah, you gotta look up if you ever wanna find me

It was only a mountain, nothing but a big ol' rock

Only a mountain, it ain't hard if you don't stop

It just took a little step, a right then a left

Now I'm standing at the top just shouting

Yeah, that's only a mountain

It's only a mountain, it's only a mountain

Only a mountain

Only a mountain, it was only a mountain
