The Mountain
I work all day till the sun don't shine
I Buried last winter my pretty blue eyes
I lost my home to the banker's greed
I let this town take the best of me
Roll up my sleeves and wash my hands
I'm tired of being a broken man
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
I prayed dear lord to help me hold
Swallow that grief trade it in for gold
I'm taking from those who never know
The working hands of a callused soul
One last ride by that creek
Where I laid you down to sleep
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
I guess the law wasn't on our side
I never saw it coming at 45
But as they lay me down to rest
My hands were steady, 'cause I know what's next
Maybe things didn't work as planned
But I'm still going home to see you again
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
I Buried last winter my pretty blue eyes
I lost my home to the banker's greed
I let this town take the best of me
Roll up my sleeves and wash my hands
I'm tired of being a broken man
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
I prayed dear lord to help me hold
Swallow that grief trade it in for gold
I'm taking from those who never know
The working hands of a callused soul
One last ride by that creek
Where I laid you down to sleep
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
I guess the law wasn't on our side
I never saw it coming at 45
But as they lay me down to rest
My hands were steady, 'cause I know what's next
Maybe things didn't work as planned
But I'm still going home to see you again
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
We're riding high, so high, on that mountain
We gonna ride, ride, ride till' sundown
