Blue Ridge (B-Side)

Oh I'm like the Blue Ridge
I'm like the blue ridge mountains
Lots of people surroundin'
But barely even a sound on those blue ridge mountains

And I'm like a fountain
That flows free
Lots of people drop change in
But that's the only change that I ever see

Oh I'm like an old boat
Stuck on land instead of the sea
And I've got an old hope
That some day someone will pilot me

Oh I feel like a river
That's trying to reach the sea
But frozen by the cold winds
That keep on blowin, blowin on me

And I'm like an oak tree
I've seen many years go by
But my time in the sun, hasn't yielded any fun
Man I just want to fly

But even some birds
Are stuck on the ground, unable to fly
But the mountains,
They reach up, they reach up and touch the sky

So maybe those mountains, ain't so bad after all
Stuck to the ground, but at least they stand,
They stand up tall

Oh I'm like the blue ridge
I'm like the blue ridge mountains
Standing up tall, and looking strong
Standing up tall, and looking strong
Standing up tall, and looking strong, just where I belong
