Producer * Nelson Guimaraes
============================================
Walking through the high dry grass
Pushing my way through slow
Yellow belly black snake sleeping on a red rock
Waiting for the stranger to go
Sugar train stops at the crossing
Cane cockies cursing below
Slow train running
Better come to the top of the mountain
CHORUS:
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
say you're Peter, Say you're Paul
Don't put me up on your bedroom wall
Call me king of the mountain
Blacksmith fires up the bellows
Cane cutters burning the load
Workers of the world
Run to the top of the mountain
CHORUS:
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
say you're Peter, Say you're Paul
Don't put me up on your bedroom wall
Call me king of the mountain
Well, I can't take the hands from my face
There are some things we can't replace, yeah
CHORUS:
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
Mountain in the shadow of light
Rain in the valley below
say you're Peter, Say you're Paul
Don't put me up on your bedroom wall
Call me king of the mountain
Over liquid tarmac wastelands of cactus and heat
Down cobblestone alleyways of washing day sheets
Up ghost prairie mountains of sunset and space
Down the road, a familiar place, across the wilderness
Out further than the bush, I will follow you
I will follow you, I will follow you
