Mountain Jumper

歌詞

When I'm walking alone in the night I see the green coyote in the distance Strolling in the desert long beneath the crescent moon In the boomerang action of the noon gang I climb the hills and I wonder Thunder and the lightning falls into a barren zone Maybe someone saw me in the forest last Wednesday night, I don't know.

I'm a mountain jumper, when I ride the night. I'm a mountain jumper, when I ride the night....
