Well i bought myself a beat up dodge and i filled it up with gas
Took the old road out of town and avoided the whole bypass
Tried to get back a long gone feeling but you can never go home again
Oh it's such a pity the condition this road is in

Do you remember the mountain
And the spring where the water ran so free
Now there's just a big fat managed community
Over there where the spring used to be
 
We'd come up from the foothills with our water jugs
Get water from that mountain the water that we all loved
Then one morning the highway machine showed up and
Blasted down the peak
Everything is such a pity now the mountain side so bleak
 
Do you remember the mountain
And the spring where the water ran so free
Now there's just a big fat managed community
Over there where the spring used to be
 
That old dodge ran hot and I got lost
Outside of Gainesville town
Finally found a service station
That wasn't boarded up and totally closed down
He patched up the radiator and sold me some cider too
Whoa kid come back later for a quart of that mountain dew
 
Do you remember the mountain
And the spring where the water ran so free
Now there's just a big fat managed community
Over there where the spring used to be
