Silver Mountain

[Verse 1]

Up there on Silver Mountain

That's where I'll wait for you

Up there on Silver Mountain

Up where the sky is blue

[Verse 2]

Your books I used to carry

When we were back at school

I had a girl I wanna marry

I won't rest until I do

[Chorus]

Will you meet me by the river?

Where the current runs dark and strong

I know your daddy's waitin'

So I'm comin' with my guns on

[Verse 3]

Up there on Silver Mountain

Where the folks are easy to laugh

Up there on Silver Mountain

As long as you don't cross their path

[Chorus]

Will you meet me at the river?

I'll take you for my bride

Tеll your daddy that I'm comin'

I ain't leavin' 'til I'm satisfied

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]

Up wherе the Silver River

Rushes over the roots of that big oak tree

On the banks at the end of the river

We stood here, your dad and me

[Chorus]

Hello John, I plan on leaving here with her

It's a good day as any to die

My blood mixed with the clay of the river

I saw your face against the sky

Goodbye, my sweet love, goodbye
