Levon Helm Dirt Farmer The Mountain I was born on this mountain a long, long time ago Before they knocked down the timber and a strip-mined all the coal When you rose up in a mornin' before it was daylight To go down in that dark hole and come a back up at night I was born on this mountain, this mountain's my home She holds me and she keeps me from a worry and woe Well, they took everything she gave, she gave me 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, I know every holler, every cool swimmin' hole ‘Til one night, I lay down and I woke up to find That my 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 |
