Lyrics:

There is a feeling
Hiding in my body
Hiding in my body
Pulling me home

Am I in a contest
Who can talk the loudest
Wearing it the proudest
Dance dance to the beat

Mountain woman
Mountain woman
Be not ashamed.

I see your fingers
Tackling the rain clouds
Quiet but you’re so loud
The rhythm under your feet

There’s always someone
speaking in whispers
they stand a little closer
Down down we go

Mountain woman
Mountain woman
Be not ashamed

Are they tickling your temper
Picking at your armour
Pecking like a vulture
Pushing you home

Mountain woman
Be not ashamed
‘cause you are all I see
You are all I see
Standing tall on your tree top mountain
woman
mountain woman
be not ashamed
mountain woman
mountain woman
mountain woman
be not ashamed
be not ashamed
