Camaderry Mountain
I’ve worked for too long
I taste nothing but salt on my tongue
And the meanness inside
Of my stubborn mind
Has led me along
So wrong
Through the rivers
Dried up for years
And the districts
Of sorrow and tears
And I’ve nothing to sell
But this coat that I bare
And I can’t because it’s been raining
For years
My one and my only
Please don’t cry
Cause I’m going
Where the sun forever shines
Right at the top
Of Camaderry mountain
Is where I’ll be for a while
And I’ve worked till I’ve ached in my bones
And I wish I had a place to call my own
Established in time
With my bloodline
Infused with the land that I own
See the land for miles
Treetops and hills that stand high
Right at the top of Camaderry mountain
The land with nothing to hide
My one and my only
Please don’t cry
Cause I’m going
Where the sun forever shines
Right at the top
Of Camaderry mountain
Is where I’ll be for a while
My one and my only
Please don’t cry
Cause I’m going
Where the sun forever shines
Right at the top
Of Camaderry mountain
Where my heart sits
On a memory of her smile
Right at the top
Of Camaderry mountain
Is where I’ll be for a while
