song list next song Budgie: Letter H Budgie: The Best Of Budgie (2) Budgie: The Best Of Budgie Budgie: Bandolier I Ain't No Mountain
(words: Andy Fairweather Low, music: Shelley/Bourge)
Now it wasn't easy when you didn't see much
And you buried your feet
And you lost your love
You cheated someone

Then you strayed too far
Now you're on your own
And you drive your car

I ain't no mountain for you to climb on
I ain't nobody that you could be
So don't make me bed for me to lie in
While I'm paying like the rest

Although you see some action
You know it's bad
Oh let's see you tell you, 'bout you on your hat
Don't speak so loudly as you drive your car
Boy you blow your mind, and I know who you are

I ain't no mountain for you to climb on
I ain't nobody that you could be
So don't make me bed for me to lie in
While I'm paying like the rest

(Shelley/Bourge)
I can't see my feelings
Open my eyes
I can't see my feelings
Open a pair of eyes

I can't see my feelings
Keep them behind
I just keep on reeling
Running back down the line

I I I I I I I I
Oh oooh
A weight like a stone
Uuuuuuum um um um um, hey

Oh, I can't stand that screaming
Don't even try
Music fans some feelings
It'll be tell me why

Oh oh
Now now now

I can't stop that feeling
Showing me why
Man I love that feeling
Yeah, blowin' me right through the sky

Ah, Whew! Hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh

Oh hey hey hey hey hey hey
Oh, listen to what she says
If it's good, it's nice

(Bourge/Shelley)
Living ain't easy it opens your head
Layin' and prayin' you wish you were dead
When I was born I was given a will
That the meaning of life is
I'm in for the kill

Loving knowing giving showing
Love is seeing and ever being
Motor cruising midnight boozing
Altar singing and bells that are ringing

You got a reason to listen to me
For I am a messenger carrying the key
Money is nothing to hold into wills
And the meaning of life is
I'm in for the kill

You see me moving around playing on people's minds
But I won't be for nobody I only have a way of return
Take me make me do what you want
You ain't gonna mock up me
Well I am the tolls and I am the right
And I am the earth and the sea

Hey there you with a lock that is boozed
Gonna say it with a face that's red
It's only the ones who can take the pain
Who can take that golden hat
I'm only trying to help you love in a world
That is hot and rough
It's me and you and a cat named boo
And a woman who has run out of stuff

(Bourge/Shelley/Phillips)
You got your feelings
Your old fashioned feelings
About the world and its ways
No retribution
No simple solution
I think we're caught in a maze

And all the plunder
That feeling down under
It tends to gnaw at you
We're in the grip it's a total Eclipse
The tyre fitter's got you

Now let me explain
This feeling of pain
Comes from the man at the top.
His grip is so tight
His political might
The tyre fitter will not stop

He's bleeding your brain
He'll drive you insane
Nobody making a move
He'll give you a pen
But he's got him a gun
The tyre man is oh so shrewd

I'm licking my wounds
And mending my bones
And catching the wind out of town
We're all in the grip of a tyre fitter's hand
It's only doing me harm

Running away
Just isn't the way
You got to get it yourself
Watch what we do
We just gotta make do
And hide away on the shelf
