| Born in the heat of the desert |
| My mother died giving me life |
| Despised and disliked from my father |
| Blamed for the loss of his wife. |
| You know Lord, I’ve been in a prison |
| For something that I never done |
| It’s been one hill after another |
| And I’ve climbed them lord one by one. |
| But this time, Lord you gave me a mountain |
| A mountain I may never climb |
| It isn’t a hill any longer |
| You gave me a mountain this time. |
| My woman got tired of the hardships |
| Tired of the grief and the strife |
| Tired of working for nothing |
| Tired of being my wife. |
| She took my one ray of sunshine |
| She took my pride and my joy. |
| She took my reason for living |
| She took my small baby boy. |
| And this time, you gave me a mountain |
| A mountain I may never climb |
| It isn’t a hill any longer |
| You gave me a mountain this time |
