Black Mountain Lullaby Songtext

von The Duhks

Gather round my table
Say grace with me
In my little trailer
In the mountains of Wise County
Grief is mine forever
Sadness my story
Down in Inman Holler
In the mountains of Wise County

Bye baby baby bye
Little baby bye bye
Bye baby baby bye
My little baby bye bye

Mountaintops are made of 1, 000 pound boulders
That roll down the hills and on to our shoulders
Lord let me bear it for safekeeping
Lord let me shield it from my dearest Jeremy

Bye baby baby bye
Little baby bye bye
Bye baby baby bye
My little baby bye bye

Mama will rock you til you are sleeping
Angels will hold you in their keeping
Powerful men will make their money
Your name will live here in the mountains of Wise County

Bye baby baby bye
Little baby bye bye
Bye baby baby bye
My little baby bye bye
My little baby bye bye
