You Gave Me a Mountain |
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 |
