Steve Earle - The Mountain Lyrics

Font:

Align:

I was born on this mountain a long time ago

Before they knocked down the timber and strip-mined the coal

When you rose in the mornin before it was light

To go down in that dark hole and come back up at night

I was born on this mountain, this mountains my home

She holds me and keeps me from worry and woe

Well, they took everything that she gave, now theyre gone

But Ill die on this mountain, this mountains my home

I was young on this mountain but now I am old

And I knew every holler, every cool swimmin hole

til one night I lay down and woke up to find

That my childhood was over and I went down in the mine

Theres a hole in this mountain and its dark and its deep

And God only knows all the secrets it keeps

Theres a chill in the air only miners can feel

Therere ghosts in the tunnels that the company sealed
