OUTDOORS MAN - LYRICS
I'm an Outdoors Man
On Mulfra Hill the world's my view
There is no town to drag me down
Around the nooks and brooks I roam
Ascending thoughts away from home
I'm an Outdoors Man
Rain rain on me
Hail hit on me
Sun beat me
Freeze me snow
Stroll as I please beneath the trees
And rocks like study giants' knees
Below me away scree falling
The crags in the distance call me
And who could not but give a damn
About bluff and beck and rigg and tarn
The insects on my face do me no harm
The city walls have lost their call
The music of the earth is all
The music that I need or bleed
The birds, the bats, the wind, the sea
How many gates have felt my weight
With them I need not hesitate
The rainbow's ends become my friends
With them I don't have to pretend
And who could not but give a damn
About bluff and beck and rigg and tarn
I will always be an Outdoors Man
I'm an Outdoors Man
