| Song | Left My Gal In The Mountains |
| Artist | Hank Thompson |
| Album | Songs For Rounders - At the Golden Nugget |
| I left my gal in the mountains | |
| I left her standing in the rain | |
| I went down to the depot | |
| Caught myself a midnight train | |
| Made my way down to Georgia | |
| Land it in a gambling town | |
| Got myself in trouble | |
| â€~Cause I shot a county sheriff down | |
| The jury read my verdict | |
| Murder in the first degree | |
| The judge said, "Take that prisoner | |
| To the penitentiary" | |
| They put the handcuffs on me | |
| Put me on the Pullman train | |
| Took me to Atlanta | |
| Tied me to a ball and chain | |
| I left my gal in the mountains | |
| I left her standing all alone | |
| Last night I dreamed I got a letter | |
| Saying, ‽Baby, won't you please come home?†| |
| She told me that she loved me | |
| Said that she loved me true | |
| Then I dreamed I wrote a letter | |
| Saying, ‽I'ma coming home to you†| |
| Then I awoke up this morning | |
| Lyin' in Atlanta jail | |
| No one here to love me | |
| No one to go my bail | |
| Prison bars all around me | |
| The guard walking by my door | |
| I'm so sad and lonely | |
| â€~Cause I'll never see my gal no more | |
| I'll never see my gal no more |
| I left my gal in the mountains | |
| I left her standing in the rain | |
| I went down to the depot | |
| Caught myself a midnight train | |
| Made my way down to Georgia | |
| Land it in a gambling town | |
| Got myself in trouble | |
| Cause I shot a county sheriff down | |
| The jury read my verdict | |
| Murder in the first degree | |
| The judge said, " Take that prisoner | |
| To the penitentiary" | |
| They put the handcuffs on me | |
| Put me on the Pullman train | |
| Took me to Atlanta | |
| Tied me to a ball and chain | |
| I left my gal in the mountains | |
| I left her standing all alone | |
| Last night I dreamed I got a letter | |
| Saying, Baby, won' t you please come home? | |
| She told me that she loved me | |
| Said that she loved me true | |
| Then I dreamed I wrote a letter | |
| Saying, I' ma coming home to you | |
| Then I awoke up this morning | |

| I' ll never see my gal no more |
