Texty: Jay Jay Johanson. Escape.
On a mountain up North
I will build a small house
Made of wood, stone and straw
I'll let nobody in
Neither family, nor friends
Nor the postman can come
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
I will sit there and stare
When the ocean runs wild
Until I forget your name
Then I'll burn up the straw
Take it down stone by stone
And make a raft of the wood
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
On a mountain up North
I will build a small house
Until I forget your name
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
I will build a small house
Made of wood, stone and straw
I'll let nobody in
Neither family, nor friends
Nor the postman can come
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
I will sit there and stare
When the ocean runs wild
Until I forget your name
Then I'll burn up the straw
Take it down stone by stone
And make a raft of the wood
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
On a mountain up North
I will build a small house
Until I forget your name
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
And this escape can't keep going on
'Cause I can't take it no more
Not so strong
