Lyrics
Sal from the valley and Al from the alley
And they lived in harmony
Sally played acoustic and Allie played electric
And they both took turns on lead.
They sang for their friends again and again
Of the places they had been.
But their favorite song of all was called
“Up On The Mountain.”

Chorus:
Up on the mountain, up where the light breaks,
That’s where you’ll find me
Gonna leave this worrisome world and trouble behind me.
Up on the mountain, where the light breaks,
That’s where I’ll be,
I barely got time to finish this song, so say farewell to me.

Then into the valley come a gal from the galley
With the strangest smiling face,
Al played acoustic and Sally played electric
And the gal played a hell of a bass.
And when they sang their harmonies, the lady fit right in,
She soon moved in and lived with them
Up on the mountain.

Now Al from the alley is gone from the valley,
A sadder but wiser man.
And Sally from the valley and the gal from the galley,
They lived in mortal sin.
Sal plays acoustic and the gal plays electric
And sometimes they hold hands.
Late at night you can hear them playin’
Up on the mountain.
