Keeper Of The Mountain by Flatlanders
Keeper Of The Mountain lyrics
I remember you a tellin' me
don't clutch your rose
don't mourn the sunset
and I suppose
if I hear the river a moanin'
it's just the way I'm feelin'
the river's not complaining
oh no oh no no no
And the very next day
we woke before the dawn
we found our way
by the ramblin' river
and we had no dream
we just lived one
I, the keeper of the mountain
you, the morning flower
uh huh uh huh huh huh
There was no reason to go
and I never claim to know
an' these ain't teardrops
that ain't the river
just a moanin'
the river's not complainin'
oh no oh no no no
When I spoke big words
you just let them fly away
newspaper birds on a summer's day
and I took you by the hand
knew that you would understand
I, the keeper of the mountain
you, the morning flower
uh huh uh huh huh huh
