Fire On the Mountain

Took my fam'ly away from our Carolina home

Had dreams about the west and started to roam

Six long months on a dust covered trail

They say heaven's at the end

But so far it's been hellAnd there's fire on the mountain

Lightening in the air

Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me thereWe were digging and sifting from five to five

Selling ev'rything we found just to stay alive

Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars

Sinning was the big thin Lord

And satan was the starAnd there's fire on the mountain

Lightening in the air

Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me thereDance hall girls were the evening treat

Empty cartridges and blood lined the gutters of the street

Men were shot down for the sake of fun

Or just to hear the noise of their 44 gunsAnd there's fire on the mountain

Lightening in the air

Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me thereNow my widow, she weeps by my grave

Tears flow free for her man she couldn't save

Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame

All for a useless and no good worthless claimAnd there's fire on the mountain

Lightening in the air

Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
