Testo The Mountain - Levon Helm
Testo della canzone The Mountain (Levon Helm), tratta dall'album Dirt Farmer
I was born on this mountain a long, long time ago
Before they knocked down the timber and strip-mined all the coal
When you rose up in the mornin', before it was daylight
To go down in that dark hole and come back up at night
I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home
She holds me, and she keeps me from worry and woe
Well, they took everything she gave, she gave and now she's gone
But I'll die on this mountain, this mountain's my home
I was young on this mountain, but now, I am old
And I (know), I know every holler, every cool swimmin' hole
'Til the one night, I lay down, and I woke up to find
That our childhood was over, I went back down in the mine
There's a hole in this mountain, it's dark and it's deep
And God only knows all the secrets that it keeps
There's a chill in the air only miners can feel
There's ghost in the tunnels that the company sealed
