about

Written by Melanie Safka

lyrics

someday I'll be a farmer
working the land
I wish I was a farmer
to work with my hands

cuz it's been too long a ride
too high the fare
well I built and climbed a mountain
but it isn't there and I been
looking all around, looked everywhere
to build and climb a mountain
but it isn't there

if it isn't there dun-da-dun
it isn't here it isn't there
or anywhere

I'm gonna pick an apple
right from the tree
I'm gonna eat the apple
cuz it grew there for me
and it's been too long a ride
too high the fare
well I built and climbed a mountain
but it isn't there
