Jackie Lomax - A Hundred Mountains
Through the office of the law they persecute my kin
I have left a hundred mountains way behind
Anâ?? I do believe itâ??s countinâ?? on my mind
I can go no further I declare I had my fill
I can go no further Iâ??m gonna wait by the whisky still
I robbed a man who robbed the dead well before their time
Anyone with half a head can see that ainâ??t no crime
I have left a hundred mountains in my past
Anâ?? I do believe my time is cominâ?? fast
I can go no further I declare I had my fill
I can go no further Iâ??m gonna wait by the whisky still
(He can go no further) I swear I had my fill
(He can go no further) Iâ??m gonna wait by the whisky still
They shot my leg to pieces, ya know I near enough bled to death
If not for the horse between us Iâ??d still be lyinâ?? there yet
I have mastered many mountains at my best
Anâ?? I do believe itâ??s time for me to rest
I can go no further I declare I had my fill
I can go no further Iâ??m gonna wait by the whisky still
(He can go no further) I swear Iâ??ve had my fill
(He can go no further) Iâ??m gonna wait here for the kill
