paroles de chanson Gettin' Down on the Mountain - Acoustic - Corb Lund

When the oil stops, everything stops
Nothin' left in the fountain
Nobody wants paper money, son
So, you just as well stop countin'
Can you break the horse, can you light the fire?
What's that, I beg your pardon?
You'd best start thinkin' where your food comes from
And I hope you tend a good garden

Gettin' down on the mountain, gettin' down on the mountain
Don't wanna be around when the shit goes down
I'll be gettin' down on the mountain

When the truck don't run, the bread won't come
Have a hard time findin' breakfast
Water ain't runnin' in the city no more
Do you hold any precious metal?
Can you gut the fish, can you read the sky?
What's that about overcrowdin'?
You ever seen a man, whose kids ain't ate for 17 days and countin'?

Gettin' down on the mountain, gettin' down on the mountain
Don't wanna be around when the shit goes down
I'll be gettin' down on the mountain

There ain't no heat and the power gone out
It's kerosene lamps and candles
The roads are blocked, it's all gridlocked
You got a short wave handle?
Can you track the deer, can you dig the well?
I couldn't quite hear your answer
I think I see a rip in the social fabric
Brother, can you spare some ammo?

Gettin' down on the mountain, gettin' down on the mountain
Don't wanna be around when the shit goes down
I'll be goin' to ground on the mountain

When the oil stops, everything stops
Nothin' left in the fountain
Nobody wants paper money, son
So, you just as well stop countin'
Can you break the horse, can you light the fire?
What's that, I beg your pardon?
I think I see a rip in the social fabric
Brother, can you pass the ammo?

Gettin' down on the mountain, gettin' down on the mountain
Don't wanna be around when the shit goes down
I'll be gettin' down on the mountain
Gettin' down on the mountain, goin' to ground on the mountain
Don't wanna be around when the shit goes down
I'll be gettin' down on the mountain, gettin' down on the mountain

Hey!
