Away Out On The Mountain Songtext
von Hank Snow

I′ll pack my grip for a farewell trip
Kiss Susie Jane goodbye at the fountain
"I'm going," says I, "To the land of the sky"
Way out on the mountain

Where the wild sheep grows and the buffalo lows
And the squirrels are so many you can′t count them
Then I'll make love to some turtle-dove
Way out on the mountain


When the north winds blow, and we're gonna have snow
And the rain and the hail comes bouncing
Then I′ll wrap myself in a grizzly bear coat
Way out on the mountain

Where the snakes are vile and the zebras′ grows wild
And the beavers paddle on walking canes
Then I'll make my boots with a buffalo hide
Away out on the mountain

Where the whippoorwill sings me to sleep at night
And the eagle roosts on the rocks of mountain
Then I′ll feast on the meat and the honey so sweet
Away out on the mountain
