Mountains
(Lonestar)
Lucinda Jones working at the I-Hop
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs and tears
She's waited on every creed and color,
While waiting on this day to get here
Graveyard shifts, two big tips,
Making every quarter count,
Was worth it all to see her son,
In that cap and gown
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
Lose your grip, trip and fall
When you can't lean on no-one else
That's when you find yourself
I've been around and I've noticed that
Walking's easier when the road is flat
Them danged old heels will get you every time
The good Lord gave us mountains,
So we could learn how to climb
Bobby Dunn came back from the war,
Lost his leg but they couldn't take his will
Hell bent to run in that local marathon,
He trained through the endless pain and pills
It hurt so bad that sometimes
He just had to cry,
He didn't stop until he crossed,
That finish line
There are times in life when you gotta crawl,
Lose your grip, trip and fall
When you can't lean on no-one else
That's when you find yourself
I've been around and I've noticed that
Walking's easier when the road is flat
Them danged old' heels will get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains,
So we could learn how to climb
This world's not fair,
It can knock you on your butt
You can just lie there,
Or you can get back up
You gotta get back up
