You Gave Me a Mountain 歌詞

Born in the heat of the desert My mother died givin' me life Deprived of the love of a father Blamed for the loss of his wife You know, Lord, I've been in a prison For something that I've never done It's been one hill after another But I've climbed them all, one by one But this time, Lord, you gave me a mountain A mountain I may never climb And is isn't a hill any longer You gave me a mountain this time My woman tired of the hardships Tired of the grief and the strife So tired of workin' for nothin' Tired of bein' my wife She took my one ray of sunshine She took my pride and my joy She took my reason for livin' She took my small baby boy So this time, Lord, you gave me a mountain A mountain I may never climb And is isn't a hill any longer You gave me a mountain this time
