Red Mountain Blues - Original |
Goin' around Red Mountain in the mornin' |
Goin' around Red Mountain sure’s you born |
And if you never, never no more see me again |
Remember me when I’m gone |
Now sit down and write a letter for me |
And send it straight to the man I love |
Just tell him, when you find him, I’ll be gone |
A-roamin' the road above |
Down in the valley, my head was hangin' low |
My poor heart was achin', he’d hurt me so |
Fortune teller told me what I had to do |
Get myself some snake rue, sold right in the tube |
Got myself some snake rue, ------ ------ too |
Use them both together, I know what they will do |
Took some in my pocket, put some in my booze |
That don’t make him love me, I’ll saw right in the tube |
Goin' around Red Mountain in a hurry |
I’m goin' where I can change my mind |
And if I can’t get rid of all my worries |
Then I’ll be gone for a long long time |
