Verse 1: [Rhythm Figure 1]
F Am Dm G
A mother went up to the mountain, she said it was for gold
Bb Dm G
but all these drums and Indians, oh no
F Am Dm G
said buddy was a good boy, but just not for me
Bb Dm G
come on now, pack your bags, time to leave
Verse 2: [Rhythm Figure 2]
Bb C/E
but Mom, are you dead?
F
are you free from this life you’ve
C/E Dm C Bb
left for such red faced man, oh ma
C/E F
oh please don’t leave
Verse 3: [Rhythm Figure 1]
back to the city in high heels, gold rings upon her hands
get up son, it's time to run, jump and land
in a wagon with no wheels and no place to go
she just smiles and nods her head, ‘oh welcome home’
Verse 4: [Rhythm Figure 2]
but oh those mines, can’t you see,
were just much too deep for your
sins, though you buried them beneath the
mountaintops
Bridge: [Rhythm Figure 3]
Dm Am Bb
where you going with your coonskin boots?
Bb C Dm G
well I just want to be with you
I know you never said that you would stay
forever and it's getting late
well I don’t want to be a broken boy
so sad, alone, and oh so coy
why’d you got to be so god damn cruel?
well I just want to be with you
but do you...?
[Outro]
A mother went back to the mountain
she said it was for love
but all those mountain men are buried
with their lust and her gold rings
