Scott Bird - Mountain Creek Lyrics

Deep in the mountain with the setting of the sun
Wildwood echoes, mountain creek runs
Through the valley, cutting through the trees
Mountain creek run, river to the sea

A trickle through the rock, a rumble through the hill
Cool water kicking like a backwoods stil
Mist on the mountain, river and the rain
Pouring through the valley like a runaway train

In the moonshine as the blackwoods sleep
Water runs sweet, swift and deep
When I die, and sleep the sleep
You can scatter my ashes, on mountain creek

Drop me in the water
Wash my skin
The dirt gets heavy
You know it really gets in
Whisper on the moonshine
Whistle down the wind
Your heart in the hollow
Blood rush through
River bend

In the moonshine, as the blackwoods sleep
Water runs sweet, swift and deep
When I die, and sleep the sleep
You can scatter my ashes on mountain creek

In the moonshine, as the blackwoods sleep
Water runs sweet, swift and deep
And when I die, and sleep the sleep
You can scatter my ashes... on mountain creek

Well it's alright, heart light
Down neath the blackwood trees
Well it's alright, heart light
Shine on a mountain breeze

It's alright alright alright it's alright
It's alright alright alright
Shine on a mountain breeze
