lyrics:  

The smoggy air falls to the ground
It knocks me off my feet
This city life is dragging me down
My body still remains here but my heart has gone away
It's high up on a hilltop, I've got to get away

Chorus:
I'm going up to the top of the mountain
Baby, I'm leaving this town
I know I will find me a sweet honey fountain
If you come with me I ain't coming down again
If you come with me I ain't coming down again

I'm gazing into starry skies wishing they were your eyes
The view up here is unbelievable
But if this is the end, I can't pretend I'm satisfied
I'm so high and lonesome I wish that I would die

(chorus)

Your bathing in the lowlands, I'm coming home to you
From bitter cold and darkness I descend
And though I'm bent on rambling, tonight I'll stay with you
I think I see those city lights coming into view
[local town's] city lights

(chorus)
