She Came From the Mountains Songtext

She came from the mountains
Rocky Mountains eagle high
She′s from where the mountains
Lean up to the sky

Now she's back among the Rockies
Where mountain thunders cry
Now the wind from off the mountains
Wails a sad goodbye

Once in Colorado Springs, at the foot of old Pike′s Peak
I met a Rocky mountain girl, to my soul her heart let speak
We went to tell her parents, and an old grandmother said
If you'll leave these mountains, girl, you'll wish that you were dead

The next day I took her with me, to my far-off Iowa home
Way out on the flatlands, where the mountain winds don′t moan
Each footstep we took was happy, or at least, it shouldn′t been
But I would find her listening for that same lone mountain wind


She came from the mountains
Rocky Mountains eagle high
She's from where the mountain
Lean up to the sky

Now she′s back among the Rockies
Where mountain thunders cry
Now the wind from off the mountain
Wails a sad goodbye

Months passed as fast as antelopes, until one fatal dismal dawn
I walked to see morning sun, shine down on where she was gone
I'd known that lately she′d been sad, women sometimes get that way
I hadn't guessed how much was wrong until that fatal day

She had left the weeping letter, homesick with mountain names
She was somewhere in the Rockies and I knew I′d been to blame
So now in Colorado Springs, I wait near old Pike's Peak
Where once, I met a mountain girl, that mountain girl I seek

She came from the mountains
Rocky mountain eagle high
She's from where the mountain
Lean up to the sky


Now she′s back among the Rockies
Where mountain thunders cry
Now the wind from off the mountain
Wails a sad goodbye
