There are times i fear i lose myself
I don't know who i am
I get caught up in the struggle and the strain
With my back against a stonewall
My finger in the dam
Losin' strength and goin' down again

And i take a look around me
My eyes can't find the sun
There's nothing wild as far as i can see
Then my heart turns to alaska
And freedom on the run
I can hear her spirit callin' me

To the mountains, i can rest there
To the rivers, i will be strong
To the forest, i'll find peace there
To the wild country, where i belong

Oh, i know some times i worry
On worldly ways and means
And i can see the future killing me
On a misbegotten highway
Of prophecies and dreams
A road to nowhere and eternity

And i know it's just changes
Yes, and mankind marchin' on
I know we can't live in yesterday
But compared to what we're losin'
And what it means to me
I'd give my life and throw the rest away

To the mountains, i can rest there
To the rivers, i will be strong
To the forest, i'll find peace there
To the wild country, where i belong
To the wild country, where i belong
