Sun pours golden as ever, lays me down in the weeds
I smell the moss from the river, and hear the quaking trees
I hear my mountain maiden, bathin' there in the river waitin'
For me to jump back in
With a trick of the mind, I am back with her, I made it
In the blink of an eye, I am by her side again
Nothin' stoppin' me this time, for I've been away for such a while
But we're always together in our minds
Just my mountain maiden and I
Take a note I ask no pardon, as I gush over her beauty
Of city love I take no part it, with her my heart will always be
I hear my mountain maiden, bathin' there in the river waitin'
For me to jump back in
With a trick of the mind, I am back with her, I made it
In the blink of an eye, I am by her side again
Nothin' stoppin' me this time, for I've been away so many times
But we're always together in our minds
Just my mountain maiden and I
I rush as the wind across the leaves, quick as a mare beneath the spur
My heart has a lovely way it speaks, it says go to her
How I wish to see my lovely lady
I wish to see my mountain maiden
RIGHT NOW
Here I am, I have come so many miles
But we're finally together in real life
I see my mountain maiden, layin' there in the meadow
Waitin' for me to come back home
