Run mountain
Traditional
Went up on the mountain to fetch me a load of pine,
Put it in the wagon, I broke down behind.
(Chorus:)
Run mountain, chug a little hill.
Run mountain, chug a little hill.
Run mountain, chug a little hill.
There you get your thrill.
Sixteen miles from my home, rooster crow for day,
Me in bed with another man's wife, better be getting away.
[Chorus:]
Went up on the mountain to give my horn a blow.
Thought I heard a pretty girl say, ³Yonder comes my beau! "
[Chorus:]
Wish I had a needle, fine as I could sew.
Sew a pretty girl to my side and down the road I'd go.
[Chorus:]
