(J. Comanor/S. Silverstein)

Sal from the valley loved Al from the alley and
they lived in harmony Sally played acoustic and
Al, he played electric and they both took turns on
lead They sang it for their friends, again and
again of the places they had been But their
favourite song of all was called up on the
mountain

Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this
worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on
the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where
I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song
so say farewell for me

Then into the valley came a girl from the galleys,
with a strange and smilin' face Al played acoustic
and Sally played electric, and the gal played a
hell of a bass And when they sang their harmonies,
the lady dipped right in She soon moved in and
lived with them up on the mountain

that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this
worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on
the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where
I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song
so say farewell for me

Now Al from the alley is gone from the valley, a
sadder but wiser man And Sally from the valley and
the gal from the galleys they live in mortal sin
Sal plays acoustic and the gal plays electric and
sometimes they hold hands Late at night you can
hear them playing, up on the mountain

Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
that's where you'll find me Gonna leave this
worrisome world and it's trouble behind me Up on
the mountain, where the light breaks, that's where
I'll be I've barely got time to finish this song
so say farewell for me

Hot lickin' and finger pickin' Say farewell for me
