Black Mountain Blues - Original |
| Old black mountain |
| Tried to spit in your face |
| Old black mountain |
| Tried to spit in your face |
| Babys grubbing whiskey |
| Oh she’s practising ??? |
| Old black mountain |
| Mean as they can be Old black mountain |
| Mean as they can be They use gunpowder |
| Just to sweeten the tea |
| Had a girl in black mountain |
| Sweetest girl in town |
| Had a girl in black mountain |
| Sweetest girl in town |
| But she met a sweet black man |
| Then she threw me down |
| Well, old black mountain |
| Can’t keep man in jail |
| Well, old black mountain |
| Can’t keep man in jail |
| Sure to call him guilty |
| Judge will cry and bail |
| I’m bound for black mountain |
| Me and my razor and my gun |
| I’m bound for black mountain |
| Me and my razor and my gun |
| Gonna cut her if she stands there |
| And shoot her if she runs |
