I remember the teacher man that walked into our town
He said life's like a mountain, tall, you've got to reach the crown
He said life's like a mountain rising from the sky
He said you really got to climb, my friend, you really have to try....
(refrain)
To go up, up, up, up, you-up, up, up, up, you-up, up, up, up, you-up up, I was halfway up the mountain, I was halfway up the mountain. I was halfway up the mountain when I met you. Halfway up the mountain, only halfway up the mountain I was halfway up the mountain when I met you
I was nearly tired to death and falling to the ground
Funny how when things got tough I had no friends around. I couldn't take another step, that mountain was too high. But then I heard your voice say, "Love, we'll get there by and by." Come on (refrain) up, up, up, up, you-up, up, up, up, up, you-up, up, up, up, up, you-up
Up, I was halfway up the mountain. I was halfway up the mountain. I was halfway up the mountain when I met you
Halfway up the mountain, only halfway up the mountain. I was halfway up the mountain when I met you..... You..... You...... You!
