letra de round mountain - courtney patton
[verse 1]
i left round mountain when the last church closed its doors
half the town was leavin’ and they wouldn’t miss one more
change had been a-comin’ and i guess that it changed me
into a woman who was willin’ to abandon a family
[refrain]
run away from round mountain
run away miss emily
[verse 2]
married much too young and took no time to bring a life
into a world where husbands broke their backs for homes run by their wives
just a baby raisin’ babies, i made mistakes and would make more
’til i ran out chasin’ voices that beckoned me from my back door
[refrain]
run away from round mountain
run away miss emily
[chorus]
now i’m headed down to a place where copper wishes go
tell the ones i left behind i can’t do this anymore
all of my transgressions are too heavy to drag around
and the weight they put on me will surely let me sink right down
[verse 3]
our four kids were growin’ while inside of me a son
i won’t stay to be ashamed at the things i know i’ve done
i was lonely when i let another’s husband share my bed
while mine was plowin’ fields, i was breakin’ vows instead
[verse 4]
and i looked down into darkness, and i looked up and felt it burn
it was hotter than the fires of h-ll my crimes would surely earn
i knew what i was doin’ as i climbed up and jumped in
let the murky water cool me, let it wash away my sins
[chorus]
now i’m headed down to a place where copper wishes go
tell the ones i left behind i can’t do this anymore
all of my transgressions are too heavy to drag around
and the weight they put on me will surely let me sink right down
[refrain]
run away from round mountain
run away miss emily
[refrain]
run away from round mountain
run away miss emily
