lyrics

well they ran to the mountains,
with a hunger in their eyes.
yes, they ran to the mountains,
with their ammo and their pride.

well, they seen it on TV
sposed they knew how to survive
but in their hearts, there was a sickness
same one destroyed what they left behind.

fish a'washin up on beaches
aint too many birds to fly
too dry a year for pickin peaches
ain't no berries in the pines.

so they tore the trees to tinder
in the name of their god of greed
when the wind came howlin winter,
there was nothing for to eat.

you ain't gonna find no propane,
you ain't gonna find no store
and there's none out here to save you
not your brother, or your lord.

old man from the coal mine,
tell me how do your children fare,
when the hard-earned money don't mean nothin
and the land is rendered bare?

said "survival of the fittest"
only applies to those who fit
well the mountain, she'll keep on living
but your avarice will be your death.

well they ran to the mountains
with a hunger in their eyes
yes they ran to the mountains,
with their ammo and their pride.

for all those duck dynasty bugout bag rugged individualists who think they're buggin out to the mountains by themselves once the "shtf"
the moment they realize those ration buckets they bought off amazon aren't gonna last forever
