Take Me Home, Mountain Tracks

Stephen Lake

Tune: Take me home, country roads

Almost heaven, out bushwalking,Bogong High Plains, Murrumbidgee River.Life is good there, underneath the trees,Camping in the mountains, strolling in the breeze.

Mountain tracks, take me homeTo the place I belong.Wild bush country, ever higher.Take me home, mountain tracks.

All good memories, remote places,Ridge a climbin’, mighty wind-swept summits.Wild and peaceful, to refresh my mind.Dew upon the dawn grass, nature is so kind.

Mountain tracks, take me home,To the place I belong.Wild bush country, ever higher.Take me home, mountain tracks.

I see the pictures of the places that I long for.The scattered gear at home reminds me of peaks snowy.Those distant mountains, their siren song isCalling me to where I need to be, need to be.

Mountain tracks, take me home,To the place I belong.Wild bush country, ever higher.Take me home, mountain tracks.

Take me home, on mountain tracks.Take me home, on mountain tracks.
