Mountain Time Lyrics by Chris Petersen

Cowboy Coming Home

2019

[Verse 1]
Don't know who invented the bench seat
But I'd sure like to thank that man
One hand on the wheel, the other 'round you
Is almost as good as it gets

[Verse 2]
Girl, you sure get my gears turning
Lookin' at me with those big brown eyes
If there's somethin' that could make this day any better
There's only one thing on my mind

[Chorus]
Baby, we should get lost in each other
And I know a place we can go
Where that high country wind from the Rockies
Can clear out the dust in our souls

What d'you say, we just pull off this highway
And leavе all the crazy behind
Baby, hold on to me
Lеt these four spinning wheels
Set that clock back to mountain time

[Verse 3]
Can't you just feel us gettin' closer?
The closer we get to that timberline
This buzz we're on now all alone in these clouds
Is a whole 'nother level of high

[Chorus]
Baby, we should get lost in each other
And I know a place we can go
Where that high country wind from the Rockies
Can clear out the dust in our souls

What d'you say, we just pull off this highway
And leave all the crazy behind
Baby, hold on to me
Let these four spinning wheels
Set that clock back to mountain time

[Bridge]
Where the world doesn't turn quite as fast
We can get above all these distractions
And where we're goin', we don't need no map

[Chorus]
Yeah, we need to get lost in each other
And I know a place we can go
Where that high country wind from the Rockies
Can clear out the dust in our souls

What d'you say, we just pull off this highway
And leave all the crazy behind
Baby, hold on to me
Let these four spinning wheels
Set that clock back to mountain time

Yeah, baby, hold on to me
Let these four spinning wheels
Set that clock back to mountain time

Let's get back to mountain time
