Mountain Lady Songtext
von Johnny Cash

Mountain Lady,
Do you sit on your front porch
In the cool of the day?
Mountain Lady,
Did you think your kids would ever come back to stay?
Mountain Lady,
Does the columbine still twine around your door?
And did you ever get a rug
To cover the cracks where my diper drug on your wooden floor?
Oh you appalachian Lady,
Once I was your little baby
And you rock me in your homemade rocking chair.
Since I heard the wild goose callin′,
I have done a lot of fallin'
Mountain Lady,
Some day, I′ll come to you there.
Mountain Lady,


Does the country church bell ring on sunday morning?
Mountain Lady,
Do you still wear that old labryn
Ragged and torn?
Mountain Lady,
On winter nights, before our old fireplace,
As you're looking to the flames,
Do you ever call my name
And do you see my face?
Oh you appalachian Lady,
Once I was your little baby
And you rock me in your homemade rocking chair.
Since I heard the wild goose callin',
I have done a lot of fallin′
Mountain Lady
Some day, I′ll come to you there.
Mountain Lady
