Mountain Bird Songtext
von Cherry Ghost

Angel eyes, strike a match and set this city alight
All of my life I have been pondering the good, done doing right

Won′t you be my mountain bird?
Forget all you've seen and heard here
Change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don′t go chasing the greenback dollar

There was a time when I'd sing my songs with a mouthful of rain
Oh, now I'm a cut price criminal
First goes the heart, there goes the shame

Won′t you be my mountain bird?
Forget all you′ve seen and heard here
Change your name, a-change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don't go chasing the greenback dollar


Button up, boy, toughen up, boy, learn to destroy
Above it all, my tears have run dry
Oh, who am I to tell my grief to?

Fight like a dog with a big ass bone, you′ll still be a dog
Head with a dumbbell ego, shooting
Up the neighbors for a barrel of gun

Won't you be my mountain bird?
Forget all you′ve seen and heard here
Change your name, a-change your name and cut your hair
Spread your wings across my window
Don't go chasing the greenback dollar


(Who am I to tell my grief to?)
The greenback dollar
(Who am I to tell my grief to?)
The greenback dollar
(Who am I to tell my grief to?)
Who am I to tell my grief to?
(Who am I to tell my grief to?)
The greenback dollar
(Who am I to tell my grief to?)
Who am I to tell my grief to?
