Mountain View

By Tom Hunnicutt

(Key D)

1st Verse

Up on Razorback Ridge where I played as a child –
these are favorite mem’ies of mine.
Roaming throught the woods, swimming in a pond
or smoking on an old grapevine.
Canoeing down White River on a hot summer day,
and I had more than fishing on my mind.
For there’s a little girl I knew who lived in Mountain View
and rection I’d be a seeing her that night.

Chorus

Mountain View………I’m missing you.
Mountian View………Why did I go?
Mountain View………Just out of reach - tonight.
But Mountain View...I’m coming home - in my dreams tonight.

2nd Verse

Now as the years moved along I left my mountain home –
following my rainbow and my dream.
Trying to be a star and playing my guitar - I left my home
and I left Mountain View.
Now I’m rolling down the highway a thousand miles from home,
you might call me a minstrel of the road.
Yet, sometimes late at night when that old moon’s shining bright,
my mind takes me home to Mountain View.
