letra de mountain roads - allan wachs

the valley’s filled with timber and the hills are filled with elk
the sky is filled with thunder, stars, and rain
hiking down this road, we might get a little help
a hand to lift, to ease this aching strain

lights go rolling by with visions of the sky
and other private dreams of lost control
almost in the ditch, no shoes or wheels to switch
and every mile’s bound to take its toll

but it’s all for the ride, it’s all for a taste
it’s all that i can do to get someplace
when you’ve got enough at stake
you can bend or you can break
on these mountain roads
there’s beauty in the deer, the cedar, and the moss
the silent peace of trees can ease your soul
but the hills are turned to slash
the pulp mills take it all for cash
you can see the scars most anywhere you go

they say it’s all for the living, it’s all for some green
it’s only for their interest that they dream
money, l-st, or trees
the price is high indeed
on these mountain roads

the valley’s filled with timber and the hills are filled with elk
and cold, ancient shadows lost in time
there’s echoes in the wind and the ghosts of indians
praying to the great spirit for a sign

i’m still on the edge, hanging by a thread
waiting for a stranger’s distant lights
in the darkness and the chill, all i’ve got is my own will
to keep me moving through the night

and it’s all for the ride, it’s all for a taste
they’re slashing second growth most every place
what’s gone is gone
what’s been left still carries on
on these mountain roads
on these mountain roads
on these mountain roads
on these mountain roads
