It was a beautiful Sunday morning
So we went for a drive
To hike up in the mountains
And we lost track of time
Kissin and a-huggin
We never saw the sun go down
I said baby we re lost
And she proceeded to freak out
So I said
Baby, baby don t panic
I know how to cook bannock
I can build you a fire — I know you re tired
Ain t this romantic?
That coyote howls
And the grizzly bear he growls
But I can get you through the night
Oh yes I can
I m a mountain man
I gave her a little hug
Said there s no need to cry
I used to be a beaver scout
All I need is this buckknife
I can carve a hook
Pull a fish from a brook
Get a big one with a gun
Except tonight I don t really have one
But that s half the fun
Aw you know I m only kiddin hon
Baby, baby don t panic
I know how to cook bannock
I can build you a fire — I know you re tired
Ain t this romantic?
I know you re a city girl
But if you had to you could eat a squirrel
Yeah I can cook him up just right
You know I can
I m a mountain man
We can pick berries in the moonlight
Cause I know which ones to eat
How to recognize poison ivy
If you go looking for leaves
Baby, baby don t panic
I know how to cook bannock
I can build you a fire
I know you re tired
Ain t this romantic?
I can kill us an elk
I can rattle a deer
I can grow you a big old bushy beard
And live up here all year and never go back
Yeah, I m a mountain man
Man with a plan
You re in good hands
I m your mountain man
Aw don t cry honey
It s all gonna be alright
