Mountain Wild - Chris Ledoux
There was a man
That lived in the hills all by himself
Chin whiskers' hangin' off his face
In the tree there's a hangin' Bull Elk
The only friend
He's got in this world is a big old Wild Cat
That sleeps down at the foot of
The cave kills off the big rats
I think I'ed like to see this guy well
I might just maybe
But everybody in the little bitty town
They say he's crazy
I asked a fellow what the story
Was asked him just what happeded
He said boy sit down let me tell you
About this mountain wild man
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
He had a job and a wife and a little bitty boy
And things were just fine
Till he caught that woman out a runnin' around
And it kinda messed up his mind
So he went to the bar and he had a few drinks
And he did a lot of thinking
He could either kill that cheatin' woman or drown
His sorrows drinking
Well he knew he couldn't kill that cheatin' woman
Or they'd put him in a prison
And his heart and pride were too damn strong for
Him to go to drinking
So he broke the bonds of
Society and started walkin'
He bought a rifle and an ax
And a big Bowie knife
And went to the mountains
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
Boy I'm gonna tell you something your
Momma probably never told you
Just what she never told you bout your
Pa and why he left you
Now you've heard the story
Of why he left this land
Well boy I know who your p's is
He's the Mountain Wild Man
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
Mountain wild man up on the mountain
