Mountain Child

Her hair was tangled; her clothes were torn

No pride left to protect

Her mama's last hope; brothers and sisters at home

Praying she brings them back some breadWoah, WoahLike a law man hunting down a thief

She was looking for her daddy

Her desperate eyes searched each man's face

But lord, they came up emptyWoah, Woah

You could tell from the red clay on her shoes

She was from down in the holler

A mountain child born to lose

Down in that hollerThe bar man signaled, slowly she crossed the room

He leaned in and whispered low

Without one word she turned and climbed the back stairs

Just like I did so many years agoWoah, Woah

Woah, WoahWoah, Woah

Woah, Woah

Woah, Woah

Woah, Woah
