Blood, Sweat & Tears - High On A Mountain lyrics

High on a mountain where the sun still shines And the water runs a little lazy Wild-eyed and lonely, runnin' out of time Some will say I died half-crazy One time a hustler took me for a ride All because I tried to deceive her She broke me down and laughed and left me weak inside The more I lost my pride, the more it pleased her Carry me 'cross the water I've been over there once before Stayed with a poor man's daughter I can't live in this country no more d**h beds and ragged threads are my last home Someone should have known of my endin' Born bad, I k**ed a man for sympathy Ain't much left of me worth defendin'
