High Away Gone - Della Mae

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

Well, if you keep on digging the lane (high away from the valley)

Oh, blow off the top and turn it to sand (high away and gone)

Oh that mess she’s in, I told her draw (?) (high away from the valley)

But he’ll give you a little and take the whole (high away and gone)

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

Well my brother, what will you do (high away from the valley)

When that land you love is blackened through (high away and gone)

When that song you sing breaks your back (high away from the valley)

When the lungs you breathe with turn to black (high away and gone)

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

Oh my sister, what would you say (high away from the valley)

The coal won’t buy your bread today (Oh, high away and gone)

When the man you love is in the mine (Ooh, high away from the valley)

When black Mariah says it’s time (Oh, high away and gone)

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away from the valley

I’m going up on the mountain, say

High away and gone
