Mountain Boy |
| Mountain boy |
| Pickin' up rocks a puttin' 'em in the wagon |
| The sun goes down my poor feet a draggin' |
| Mountain boy. |
| Now I wish |
| I own ten acres down in the valley instead of these rocks on this hill |
| 'Cause they grow some tall corn down in the valley |
| And my land seems just won’t till. |
| You know my mountain girl went down in the valley |
| I guess about a year ago |
| And married a valley farmer |
| «Cause he had a lotta hail. |
| And in a way I guess it’s better |
| I didn’t have anything but love to offer |
| No, I don’t guess I can blame her |
| 'Cause life in the valley is a whole lot softer. |
| But for a while I thought this pain in my heart |
| Was gonna get the best of me |
| But I just kinda go away now |
| And I just worry about the rest of me. |
| And I’ll bet there’s a lotta men just like me |
| That on mountain ground where the winter wind’s cold |
| And spendin' their entire life looking down |
| Just two miles from something they’ll never hold. |
| A pickin' up rocks a puttin' 'em in the wagon |
| The sun goes down my poor feet a draggin' |
| Mountain boy… |
