[Verse 1]
Red sun rising, over the hill
I've had enough of this desert to last from now until
I'm tired of living day-to-day and hand-to-mouth
This could be the day I finally find my way out
[Chorus]
I'm going to climb that mountain high
I'm going to see what's on the other side
I'm going to kiss this town good-bye
I'm going to climb that mountain
[Verse 2]
How I arrived here, heaven only knows
Seems more like the kind of place the devil would've chose
To spend my life here, is more than I can do
I know somewhere down the road my dream will come true
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
If I stay here forever
What will I have to show
But if I make it over
Then everyone will know
[Outro]
I'm going to climb that mountain high
