lyrics

I was born on this mountain a long time ago
'fore they knocked don the timber and strip mined the coal
you rose in the morning before it was light
to go down n that dark hole and come up at night

I was born on this mountain this mountain's my home
she holds me and keeps me from worry and woe
well, they took everything that she gave now they're gone
but I'll die on this mountain this mountain's my home

I was young on this mountain but now I am old,
and I know every holler every cool swimmin' hole
till one night I lay down, wake up to find
that my childhood as over way down in that mine

I was born on this mountain this mountain's my home
she holds me and keeps me from worry and woe
well, they took everything that she gave now they're gone
but I'll die on this mountain this mountain's my home

there's a hole in this mountain its dark and it's deep
and lord only knows all the secrets it keeps
there's a chill in the air only miners can feel
and there's ghosts in these tunnels that the company sealed
