Lyrics

I came up in Illinois but I made my out west
Where we note a few details and dramatize the rest

Big mountain shining river
Climbing higher up that hill
This country full of promise
Are we making time stand still?

When I was a younger man, I spent some time on the big screen
I organized the labor and kept the peace behind the scenes

Big mountain shining river
Climbing higher up that hill
This country full of promise
Are we making time stand still?

So began my hardest role: FDR and JFK
I play them like a cowboy would showing up to ride away

Big mountain shining river
Climbing higher up that hill
This country full of promise
Are we making time stand still?
