J Mascis
Mountain Man
[Verse 1]
Mining for a sacred lode
Drilling into untouched stone
The world has done enough to me
The horror now I'll never see

[Pre-Chorus]
Got to fight off grizzly bears
Got to eat, so I grab a few hares
Got to struggle to survive
That's the reason I'm alive

[Chorus]
I know I left you hurting
Disappeared with no goodbyes
But I heard the snow cats calling
I'm alright, baby please don't cry
If the guy is right for you
He doesn't live on bear cat stew
I'll live without you alright
I figured you were not sleeping at night

[Pre-Chorus]

[Verse 2]
The animals were my first real friends
They'll protect me 'til the end
Where the people lived was filled of lies
And the truth has no disguise
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
I'm a mountain man
Rip that fucker right off, I'm still smiling
This is a mountain man

[Outro]
Cause I'm a mountain man
