Lyrics

Down the Mountain

Written by Karl Obermeyer, Rick Paukert and Capital Sons

Oh baby
I brought you love
And I tried to give you everything that I could
But I’m a poor boy from an even poorer town
And it just wasn’t enough to keep you around

One in love
One in need
And I’m sure to bleed

Oh now woman
I tried with all my might
I would have carried you down the mountain if it took all night
You burned a hole in my heart that exists to this very day
And afterwards you just got up and walked away

One in love
One in need
And I’m sure to bleed
One in love
One in need
Yeah you know what I mean

Coming down the mountain
But I’m all alone
Coming down the mountain
I need to heal my soul

One in love
One in need
And I’m sure to bleed

Most would say
I’m a fool indeed
I can’t disagree
