Every day is a gamble if you're even gonna [C] make it through
[G] When you live on the side of a mountain and the baby's only two _
Was the youngest one among us a God-sickin' [C] _ [G] Woodnaughty
Had he prayed, except his faint-hearted mama Woodnaughty _ _
[C] Journey [G] across the mountain before it [C] is too late
Heal my [G] broken [D] body, death not [G] be my [C] fate
Carry me [G] across the mountain, don't give [C] up on me
I am [Gm] but a helpless [Dm] child, I depend [G] some day _ _ _ _

Daddy warned against it, said you may not [D] make it through
[G] Mama wrapped me in her arms, crying what else can I do _
There is a place across the mountain top, across the [F] mountainside
[G] Say there is a [Gm] doctor there might save our baby's life _
[C] Carry me [G] across the mountain before it [D] is too [C] late
Heal my [G] broken body, death not be my fate
[C] Carry me [G] across the mountain, don't give [F] up on [C] me
I am [G] but a helpless [D] child, I depend [G] some [Gm] day _ _ _ _

I'll stand upon the mountain top before my [D] mother's grave
[G] And every year I visit here to thank her for that day
[C] Carry me [G] across the mountain before it is [C] too late
Heal my broken body, death not be my fate
Carry me [G] across the mountain, don't [D] give up on me
