I'm going to the river To see the water flow It's coming down off a mountain To the ocean it will go And I'm going to the country To see that girl unwind She's coming down off the mountain The mountain way up high Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good Despite all the tears Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good For the first time in years Yeah I'm going into town To get myself a drink I'm coming down off the mountain To have myself a think And I've been working all winter I've been working on the fence And the borders I'm creating Never making any sense Yeah, but I'm feeling pretty good Despite all my fears Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good For the first time in years I'm sitting in the kitchen With the radio low I'm high up on the mountain Looking down below Yeah, and I'm looking out my window At all the passers by And it's five below zero Right here in my mind Yeah, but I'm feeling pretty good Despite all the tears Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good For the first time in years Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good Despite all my fears Yeah, I'm feeling pretty good For the first time in years
