The Mountain Lyrics - The Mountain - Steve Earle

I was born on this mountain a long time ago 

Before they knocked down the timber and strip-mined the coal 

When you rose in the mornin' before it was light 

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 keeps me from worry and woe 

Well, they took everything that she gave, now they're 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 knew every holler, every cool swimmin' hole 

'til one night i lay down and woke up to find 

That my childhood was over and i went down in the mine

There's a hole in this mountain and it's dark and it's deep 

And god only knows all the secrets it keeps 

There's a chill in the air only miners can feel 

There're ghosts in the tunnels that the company sealed
