People say the grass is always greener
On the other side of that old fence;
But the pastures aren't what set me longing
To remove myself from here to thence.
It's the grand and jagged rocky peaks where
Altitude is high and air blows thinly;
Heights are always higher, other places,
Which is why I want to see McKinley.
