Extreme South #1 is an unreleased song by the Mountain Goats, "probably pre-Sweden" according to John Darnielle. It was posted on themountaingoats.net on by Darnielle on December 21, 2008 along with "Hye Kye" and "Brandy Let's Go" as a reward for those who had donated to help his friend Mike pay for surgery (on the download page, John suggests those who downloaded after the fact consider donating to Ice Hockey in Harlem or Farm Sanctuary).

Lyrics[]

In the little house
On the beach
Underneath
The dwarf peach tree I've got
Coca-Cola
On my tongue
Yeah, sweet taste in my mouth
Borne down
Past Venezuela
Extreme south

South American red-capped woodpecker
In the high trees drumming
In the wet sand
I see you coming
Comfort burning
In your eyes
Yeah, sweet taste in my mouth
Borne down
Around the Horn
Extreme south
