(J. Comanor/S. Silverstein)

Sal from the valley loved Al from the alley and
they lived in harmony

Sally played acoustic and Al, he played electric
and they both took turns on lead

They sang it for their friends, again and again
of the places they had been

But their favourite song of all was called up on
the mountain

Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
that's where you'll find me

Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble
behind me

Up on the mountain, where the light breaks,
that's where I'll be

I've barely got time to finish this song so say
farewell for me

Then into the valley came a girl from the
galleys, with a strange and smilin' face

Al played acoustic and Sally played electric, and
the gal played a hell of a bass

And when they sang their harmonies, the lady
dipped right in

She soon moved in and lived with them up on the
mountain

Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
that's where you'll find me

Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble
behind me

Up on the mountain, where the light breaks,
that's where I'll be

I've barely got time to finish this song so say
farewell for me

Now Al from the alley is gone from the valley, a
sadder but wiser man

And Sally from the valley and the gal from the
galleys they live in mortal sin

Sal plays acoustic and the gal plays electric and
sometimes they hold hands

Late at night you can hear them playing, up on
the mountain

Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
that's where you'll find me

Gonna leave this worrisome world and it's trouble
behind me

Up on the mountain, where the light breaks,
that's where I'll be

I've barely got time to finish this song so say
farewell for me

Hot lickin' and finger pickin'

Say farewell for me
