Loretta Lynn Lyrics

"High On A Mountain Top" lyrics


Chorus:
High on a mountain top
We live, we love, and we laugh a lot
Folks up here know what they got
High on a mountain top.

High on a mountain top
Where the rest of the world's
Like a little bitty spot
I ain't comin down no never
I'm not High on a mountain top.
High on a mountain top.

Where I come from the mountain flowers grow wild
The blue grass sways like it's goin out of style
God fearin people simple and real
'Cause up on the ridge folks that's the deal.

Well my daddy worked down in the dark coal mine
Shovelin' that coal one shovel at a time
Never made a lot money didn't have much
But we're high on life and rich in love.

Chorus:
High on a mountain top
We live, we love, and we laugh a lot
Folks up here know what they got
High on a mountain top.

Well, down in the holler lived my uncle Joe
He'd pull out his fiddle and rosin his bow
We'd all sing and dance and we ain't gonna stop
When the moon shine flows behind every rock.

Chorus:
High on a mountain top
We live, we love, and we laugh a lot
Folks up here know what they got
High on a mountain top.

Well, we lay on our backs and we count the stars
'Cause up here folks heaven's not that far.

Chorus:
High on a mountain top
We live, we love, and we laugh a lot
Folks up here know what they got
High on a mountain top.

High on a mountain top.
High on a mountain top...
