I was standing on a corner waiting for change
I was standing on a corner I was at it again
But my love was only bringing me down

I was kicking up the dust in my ruby boots
I was kicking up the dust it was just no use
Coz my little old feet, they were bring me down

To the mountains now baby
To the silver and gold
To the mountains now baby
My heart is close to home
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Now I'm sitting here wondering how I used to be
Now I'm sitting here wondering how I didn't see
That the value of things is worth nothing at all

And now time is something that I do not see
I don't live to count, I don't breathe to need
All those little old things that were bringing me down

To the mountains now baby
To the silver and gold
To the mountains now baby
My heart is close to home
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
To the mountains now baby
To the silver and gold
To the mountains now baby
My heart is close to home
To the mountains now baby
To the silver and gold
To the mountains now baby
My heart is close to home
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
