Gordon Lightfoot
Mountains and Maryann
[Verse 1]
All is well
I made my peace where highways never end
Yesterday's a memory, today is just a friend
For the mountains and Maryann are callin' me again
And the red pines will bow their heads
The rivers and the watersheds will swallow up my tears

[Verse 2]
All is well
I left the cold midwestern towns behind
There's a semi up the road ahead, I'll take him in my time
For the hot-blooded mountain love is a-callin' me again
And the vagabond within me cries
Wind and rain might burn my eyes
But I won't feel the pain

[Verse 3]
All is well
I swing up to that border bent for hell
And the service station man agreed I didn't look too well
But the mountains and Maryann are callin' out to me
And I got my bedroll on my back
And everything that I could pack to see me on my way
For the mountains and Maryann
Will greet me there as only she can do
[Verse 4]
All is well
Made my peace and man, I'm feelin' fine
The losers that I left behind I'll think about some other time
For the border men were all my friends
They couldn't find a dime
And the prairie towns go sailin' by
Saskatchewan, there's mud in your eye
I'm leavin' you behind

[Verse 5]
All is well
The foothills are a-comin' into sight
Today is just a memory, the future is tonight
There'll be hot-blooded mountain love to satisfy my soul
And the red pines will bow their heads
The rivers and the watersheds will carry us along
For the mountains and Maryann
Will greet me there as only she can do

[Outro]
All is well
