Words by Robert Hunter;
music by Jerry Garcia.

Lyrics:
. Please don't dominate the rap Jack if you got nothing new to say If you please don't back up the track This train got to run today
. Spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill Heard some say better run away Others say you better stand still
. Now I don't know but I been told it's hard to run with the weight of gold Other hand I heard it said it's just as hard with the weight of lead
. Who can deny? Who can deny? it's not just a change in style One step done and another begun in I wonder how many miles?
. Spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill Things went down we don't understand but I think in time we will
. Now I don't know but I been told in the heat of the sun a man died of cold Do we keep on coming or stand and wait with the sun so dark and the hour so late?
. You can't overlook the lack Jack of any other highway to ride It's got no signs or dividing lines and very few rules to guide
. Spent a little time on the mountain Spent a little time on the hill I saw things getting out of hand I guess they always will
. I don't know but I been told if the horse don't pull you got to carry the load I don't know whose back's that strong Maybe find out before too long
. One way or another One way or another One way or another this darkness got to give One way or another One way or another One way or another this darkness got to give
