Lyrics

Billy's Waltz

Left her on a mountain, way up on a hill
I promised I'd come back to get her
But I know I never will

Well, I was full of good intentions
But intentions often change
Way up on that mountain
All it ever does is rain
All it ever does is rain
All it ever does is rain
Way up on that mountain
All it ever does is rain

Well my daddy was a miner working twelve-hour shifts a day
On the night there weren't enough to eat I would hear him pray
He'd say, "Help me Sweet Lord Jesus,
Don't let the kids go hungry again"
Way up on this mountain
All it ever does is rain
All it ever does is rain
All it ever does is rain
Way up on this mountain
All it ever does is rain
