|
Born in the heat of the desert |
|
My mother died giving me life |
|
Despised and disliked from a father |
|
Blamed for the loss of his wife |
|
You know, Lord, I've been in a prison |
|
For something that I've never done |
|
It's been one hill after another |
|
And I've climbed them, Lord, one by one |
|
But this time you gave me a mountain |
|
A mountain I may never climb |
|
It isn't a hill any longer |
|
You gave me a mountain this time |
|
A woman got tired of the heart[Incomprehensible] |
|
Tired of the grief and the strife |
|
Tired of working for nothing |
|
Tired of being my wife |
|
She took my one ray of sunshine |
|
She took my pride and my joy |
|
She took my reason for living |
|
She took my small baby boy |
|
And this time you gave me a mountain |
|
A mountain I may never climb |
|
It isn't a hill any longer |
|
You gave me a mountain this time |
