Tim O'Brien - Run MountainLyrics

Run mountain, chuck a little hill Run mountain, chuck a little hill Run mountain, chuck a little hill There you'll get your fill Many miles from my home Roosters crow for day Me upstairs with another man's wife Better be getting away [chorus] Way up on the mountain Give my horn a blow Thought I heard my true love say It's coming from my beau [chorus] When I'm in the fields hard at work I sit down to play Thinking of my own true love She's many miles away [chorus] Wished I had a needle and thread Fine as I could sew Sew my pretty girl to my side Down the road I'd go [chorus] Once I had a little girl Got her from the south Only thing that's wrong with her She had too big a mouth [chorus] Took my girl to the blacksmiths shop To have her mouth made small Turned around a time or two Swallowed that shop and all [chorus]
