I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
Because I've lost my will to live
It was six o'clock yesterday morning
When my sweet baby packed up to leave
It was six o'clock yesterday morning
And I ain't done nothing but grieve
Well, I cried and I begged and I pleaded
For my sweet baby not to go
Like a leaf that's caught in a whirlwind
Where she's gone now, I'll never know
Oh, tell me, why does a man let a woman
Turn him into a hollow shell
Only to leave him behind her
Like a ship at sea with no sail?
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
I'm going up on Heartbreak Hill
I'm going up on Heartbreak Mountain
Because I've lost my will to live
