Mountain Man
(Vincent)

Mountain man I know it must seem strange
for a city girl to love someone like you.
I know I have a lot to learn and have a lot to prove
mountain man, would you love me if I could?

I would learn to live off of the land
and fish, set traps, pick berries with my hands.
I would learn to shoot a gun and chop up firewood
mountain man, would you love me if I could?

And would you love me if I could plant a garden
and harvest syrup from a maple tree;
what if I could skin a deer and cook a rabbit stew?
Mountain man this city girl loves you.

Mountain man, I know it must seem weird
that I want to clean your boots and trim your beard.
I would learn to pack a lip, dip, spit, pinch and chew
mountain man, would you love me if I could?

And would you love me if I could pick a banjo
and fill the air with lovely melody;
what if I could work a still and brew some mountain dew?
Mountain man this city girl loves you.

I want to move to the mountain and be with you
I want to move to the mountain and be with you
I want to, I want to,
I want to move to the mountain and be with you.

What if I caught a trout or killed a bear?
What if I learned to breathe rarified air?
What if I gave up city life, got a rugged attitude
mountain man, would you love me if I could?

And would you love me if I could raise the children
and build a happy home and family;
what if I could promise always to stay true?
Mountain man this city girl loves you.
