Billy Bob Thornton - That Mountain Lyrics

Send "That Mountain" ringtone to your cell

There's a big black train

I've been hearing all my life

Every night at sundown

I hear its lonesome cry

When i look through the screen door

I see a rocking chair

My mama's sitting in it

Thinking 'bout that world out there

She wants to go over that mountain

To see what's on the other side

She said "i want to go over that mountain

Before the day that i die"

Well she's never set foot

Out of this poor valley holler

Though she talks about her dreams

Of some other way to fly

Eighty seven years of living

And never had much of anything

Is it asking too much to see

A damned old diesel train?

She wants to go over that mountain

To see what's on the other side

She said "i want to go over that mountain

Before the day that i die"

Twenty years ago today

My daddy left this holler

He said "i'll be coming back

Tomorrow night"

I remember the sound

Of his boot heels in the gravel

Well he ain't been back since

And he never said goodbye

She wants to go over that mountain

To see what's on the other side

She said "i want to go over that mountain

Before the day that i die

Before the day that i die"
