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).

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
