John Denver was born with the name Henry John Deutschendorf Jr. on Dec. 31, 1943, in Roswell, N.M. One of America's most popular performers in the '70s, Denver's rise to fame began when he was "discovered" in a Los Angeles nightclub. He initially joined the Back Porch Majority, a nursery group for the renowned New Christy Minstrels, but, tiring of his role there, he left for the Chad Mitchell Trio where he forged a reputation as a talented songwriter.

Dancing with The Mountains Lyrics
John Denver

Everybodys got the dancin fever
Everbodyd love to rock and roll
Play it loud and baby play it better
Funky music gotta stretch your soul
Just relax and let the rhythm take you
Dont you be afraid to lose control
If your heart has found some empty spaces
Dancins just a thing to make you whole
I am one who dances with the mountains
I am one who dances with the wind
I am one who dances on the ocean
My partners more than pieces more than friends
Were you there the night they lost the lightning
Were you there the day the earth stood still
Did you see the famous and the fighting
Did you hear the prophet tell his tale
We are one when dancing with the mountains
We are one when singing in the wind
We are one when thinking of each other
More than partners much more than pieces more than friends
