John Denver — Wrangell Mountain Song

Sunday and it's rainin' in Alaska Seven days I haven't seen the sun Flyin' bush, flyin' low along the shoreline Doin' ev'rithing I can to make it home I can't wait to see the Wrangell Mountains I can't wait to do what I will do Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly When I can't wait to get back home to you Three years from the war and settled down now I did my time and served my country well In the freedom I defended I fly beneath the North Star And I just don't know a better way to feel I can't wait to see the Wrangell Mountains I can't wait to do what I will do Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly When I can't wait to get back home to you It's a quiet life out here among the mountains In a cabin that was built with these two hands Carthy lies asleep beside the glacier It's colder now, winter's in the air If you think they're wild It's just because they can't be broken It's a strong and gentle people livin' there I can't wait to see the Wrangell Mountains I can't wait to do what I will do Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly When I can't wait to get back home to you
