Out on the street it was raining today Homeless man stood in the cold Gave him five dollars and went on my way Big city blues in my soul Maybe like me that man chose to live here Where there are days your heart dies Maybe he dreamed of a place far away Under the wide open skies. Went on my way feeling strange all that day Wondering what had gone wrong Deep in my heart I could hear that voice call Haunting me all that day long Mountain girl in the city You've been gone far too long Find your way back to the mountains Where you know you belong Where your dreams can't go wrong. I've seen the world and its sights in my day Cities that blaze like the sun I've had my share of their riches and fame Done things I never should have done Been broken-hearted and broken some hearts Tried running hard from my pain And all along that voice calls in my soul Come back to the mountains again. Mountain girl in the city You've been gone far too long Find your way back to the mountains Where you know you belong Where your dreams can't go wrong. Bought a ticket back again Heading home once more Feel that aching pain recede Like the waves on the shore I feel the heart of the mountains again Beating inside my breast Bringing me back to the place I belong Bringing me home to the west No pain or sorrow can keep me away I'll even walk that last, long mile Here in the mountains Where every sunrise starts I'll heal my heart for awhile Mountain girl in the city You've been gone far too long Find your way back to the mountains Where you know you belong Where your dreams can't go wrong. Mountain girl, mountain girl, mountain girl in the city.
