Run Mountain

Run mountain
Traditional

Went up on the mountain to fetch me a load of pine
Put it in the wagon, I broke down behind

(Chorus:)
Run mountain, chug a little hill
Run mountain, chug a little hill
Run mountain, chug a little hill

There you get your thrill
Sixteen miles from my home, rooster crow for day
Me in bed with another man's wife, better be getting away

[Chorus:]
Went up on the mountain to give my horn a blow
Thought I heard a pretty girl say, ³Yonder comes my beau! "

[Chorus:]
Wish I had a needle, fine as I could sew
Sew a pretty girl to my side and down the road I'd go

[Chorus:]
