On a mountain stands a mansion so fine
And it looks down on this cabin of mine
I had a love and I loved her true
But along came a rich man and he loved her to
Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love
Well he promised he'd buy her diamond rings
Yes he promised fancy dresses and things
Promised everything indeed
But it can't buy a love that her poor heart needs
On a mountain in a mansion stand my love
[ dobro ]
Now I know that she's not happy there
And I know that she's got thing to bare
My only dream is that someday
She'll come right back here with me and stay
In the cabin in the valley with me
On a mountain stands a mansion so fine...
Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love
Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love
