[ti: She Came From the Mountains]
[length: 04:59]
[00:14.52]She came from the mountains
[00:20.83]Rocky Mountains eagle high
[00:28.45]She’s from where the mountains
[00:35.21]Lean up to the sky
[00:40.51]Now she’s back among the Rockies
[00:48.84]Where mountain thunders cry
[00:55.30]Now the wind from off the mountains
[01:03.04]Wails a sad goodbye
[01:11.82]Once in Colorado Springs, at the foot of old Pike’s Peak
[01:17.58]I met a Rocky mountain girl, to my soul her heart let speak
[01:23.71]We went to tell her parents, and an old grandmother said
[01:27.93]If you’ll leave these mountains, girl, you’ll wish that you were dead
[01:33.82]The next day I took her with me, to my far-off Iowa home
[01:39.93]Way out on the flatlands, where the mountain winds don’t moan
[01:50.61]Each footstep we took was happy, or at least, it shouldn’t been
[01:57.24]But I would find her listening for that same lone mountain wind
[02:04.78]She came from the mountains
[02:11.00]Rocky Mountains eagle high
[02:18.98]She’s from where the mountain
[02:25.88]Lean up to the sky
[02:31.95]Now she’s back among the Rockies
[02:39.14]Where mountain thunders cry
[02:45.59]Now the wind from off the mountain
[02:52.94]Wails a sad goodbye
[03:01.21]Months passed as fast as antelopes, until one fatal dismal dawn
[03:07.79]I walked to see morning sun, shine down on where she was gone
[03:13.85]I’d known that lately she’d been sad, women sometimes get that way
[03:20.62]I hadn’t guessed how much was wrong until that fatal day
[03:25.92]She had left the weeping letter, homesick with mountain names
[03:31.04]She was somewhere in the Rockies and I knew I’d been to blame
[03:38.28]So now in Colorado Springs, I wait near old Pike’s Peak
[03:46.54]Where once, I met a mountain girl, that mountain girl I seek
[03:54.48]She came from the mountains
[04:00.54]Rocky mountain eagle high
[04:08.14]She’s from where the mountain
[04:15.19]Lean up to the sky
[04:21.09]Now she’s back among the Rockies
[04:28.45]Where mountain thunders cry
[04:34.74]Now the wind from off the mountain
[04:42.61]Wails a sad goodbye
[04:54.35]
