People who live on Bakers Mountain
Taught me a lesson 'bout the kindness of strangers
When a man's down - they don't run
They pick him back up and help him face all his dangers
These people they live on mountaintops
Where the air is clear and the children are golden
Church on Sunday with horses and carriage
Liftin' their voices in a perfect marriage
(Oh) you oughta hear them sing to their God
You oughta hear them sing about the people they love
Ever so grateful, graceful and simple
They don't want what they don't need
They got Bakers Mountain. . .
I never thought I could leave the city
I was born with concrete in my heart
But people round here showed me how to start livin'
'Cause their God loves you no matter who you are
These people they live on mountaintops
Where the air is clear and the children are golden
Church on Sunday with horses and carriage
Liftin' their voices in a perfect marriage
(Oh) you oughta hear them sing to their God
You oughta hear them sing about the people they love
Ever so grateful, graceful and simple
They don't want what they don't need
They got Bakers Mountain. . .
