In the Mountains

A wind cut through my old front door, where can my darling be? All the snow had fallen around our home and covered the tall pine trees Oh my darling wore a dress of black, just like her raven hair I found her in the snow so deep, my sorrow echoed through the air Why did you go and leave me lonely Why did you leave our happy home And why did you wander in the mountains, when you knew that you would leave me all alone All through the night the winds blew cold, the mountain side did freeze And there I wept for my own true love, who'll never return to me No meat no bread, no food can I eat, my heart has been broken in two Now the only company I have left, is whiskey and memories of you --- In the Mountains - Turkeyfoot
