    Lyrics: Steve McCarthy
    Ooh, mama
    well look what's been done
    You can only see the stars
    after a setting sun
    You run for the money
    You don't even know about wild mountain honey
    Come on mama
    heal this lonesome man
    Grow the tree of wholeness
    in this desert land
    Come on children
    now learn how to run
    by heaven, the stars, the moon and the sun
    Come on papa
    your end is the means
    don't trade your love and goodness
    for the golden machine
    You run for the money
    You don't even know about wild mountain honey...
    I prematurely uploaded this video before I completed my homework...It should say the Steve Miller Band..and, I did not give credit to the lyrcist...Steve McCarthy...not cooL...
    I take no credit for this production other than my interpretation that I suppose has been in my head and heart ever since the first time I heard this now, many years ago...but, almost seems like yesterday...
    It is my hope that by doing this...that this classic Steve Miller Band tune will be around for years to come for our childrens' children...Thanks TH-cam for the room to express our love for these great tunes.

    I remember as a child having my mother playing this vinyl while she baked bread in the kitchen, me in my 6 year old sundress, long golden curls, with a daisy chain crown, spinning circles feeling as free and innocent as a child could feel..

    my dad raised me and my sisters he was such a hippy he would pack us up in the old vw van and we would camp in it. a few friends might tag along and they would all bring a guitar or two and just play all the old tunes this one is very vivid to mestill... great memories ... I miss you daddy

    I love this one, though I've never owned it. When it came out, a friend and I were camping for a week at Raccoon Mountain Campground near Chattanooga. On the side of the mountain was the first water slide that we were ever on. There was a speaker on a light pole at the top of the slide. The guy played this album over and over again. We tried to wear that water slide out.

    Steve Miller @ wild mountain honey + Gram Parsons @ hickory wind +Nitty gritty dirt band @ Rippling matters,, , helped me realize I didn't belong in the city, but up in the mountains. I left Los Angeles , Orange county , as soon as I was old enough to know better . I was 17 in 1973, got in with the bus people, hippies, and the bikers. Man, what a ride. Lived in a tee pee between 2 creeks. up in Butte county, in the Sierra Nevada...

    This psychedelic day trip floats like a dandelion seed on a midsummer breeze. Dreamy keyboard melodies ebb and flow with the surge of synthetic surf. Waves of sound fall on the listener; a blanket of autumn leaves. Wind stirs the dust at sunset.

    H.H.H, right, a great wake-up. Hard to have a crummy take on the day with this as the opening theme to your days' soundtrack. Also a good 'wake-up' in a broader sense. It can be easy to loose sight of simple beauty and wonder in such a bustling world.

    With silence on the lakes of Shrinagar in the year 1992.
