Lyrics
The Last Mountain
V1 There's a place in west Virginia Where the mountains pierced the sky Now a wide open space gone forever Where they cut down all the trees Brought the mountain to its knees And they poisoned the air and killed the river V2 Oh they dug for the coal Til the mountain was no more While the miners they never saw the sun And many a poor man lost his life In the tunnels of the mines With that black dust heavy on his lungs Chorus And the coal companies came And the coal companies left Now all that remains are the scars upon the earth And the ghosts of the men Who died in the mines Haunt the dreams of those they left behind As the last mountain crumbles to the ground V3 In that hunger for black gold Seems the devil took control In his greed all he left behind was nothing.... And the wind blows different now With a lonesome mournful sound For the lives that are lost and forgotten Chorus Copyright 2018 Chris Mc Lernon Patricia Kearley |
