(Don Schlitz/Reba McEntire)

Red sun a-rising, over the hill

I've had enough of this desert to last from now until

I'm tired of living day-to-day and hand-to-mouth

This could be the day I finally find my way out

Chorus:

I'm gonna climb that mountain high

I'm gonna see what's on the other side

I'm gonna kiss this town good-bye

I'm gonna climb that mountain

How I arrived here, heaven only knows

Seems more like the kind of place the devil would've chose

To spend my life here, is more than I can do

I know somewhere down the road my dream will come true

Repeat Chorus

If I stay here forever

What will I have to show

But if I make it over

Then everyone will know

I'm gonna climb that mountain high

Repeat Chorus
