see that Mountain
that i've gotta' climb
It rises like a fountain
up to the sky
it'll take me a Lifetime
just ta' try
It's road is narrow, It's passes small
It's walls are Tall
It's incline steep
i'm afraid i'll Fall
It's valleys are Deep
It's Face is hard as stone
made of my meat & made of my bone
this is one Mountain i climb alone
but, i've got a Lifetime
to walk It's Road
when i reach The Top
i can drop
My Load
the Road is narrow
and straight as an arrow
cuttin' thru the wind
with just an occassional hard Bend
there's no place to Stay
for more than 1 Day
It's no place to stray
'till i reach The End
yes, i've got a Lifetime
ta' make my Climb
It's Life
and i'll only do It 1 Time
it's up to Me
to make The Climb
