The Mountain Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I was born on this mountain a long time ago
Before they knocked down the timbers and strip-mined the coal
And you woke up in the morning before it was light
And you go down in that dark hole and come back at night

[Chorus]
And I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
And she holds me and keeps me from worry and woe
And now, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
And I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home

[Verse 2]
And I was young on this mountain but now I am old
And I knew every holler and cool swimmin' hole
Until one night I lay down and woke up to find
That my childhood was over and went down in the mine

[Chorus]
And I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
And she holds me and keeps me from worry and woe
And now, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
And I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home

[Verse 3]
Oh, there's a hole in this mountain, oh, it's dark and it's deep
Oh, and Lord only knows all the secrets she keeps
And there's a chill in the air only miners can feel
There are ghosts in the tunnels the company sealed

[Chorus]
And I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
And she holds me and keeps me from worry and woe
And now, they took everything that she gave, now they're gone
And I will die on this mountain, this mountain's my home
