• 40 Miles Of Mountain Road

I walked forty miles of mountain road

with a worn out wheel and a low down load
I broke down I'd be there still
but I had enough speed to make it over the hill
I crossed the ridge over the top

Seen a two log bridge with no time to stop
I can't turn close
I can't turn wide
So I left my body on the other side

I walked forty miles of red hot clay

seen Diablo along the way
Diggin' a grave with a pick and a shovel
I said " I got no sympathy for you devil!"
I drink my liquor from an old fruit jar

I made a banjo from a old ham can
Goin' straight to hell as fast as I can
I'd rather be a possum that a po' whiteman
I walked forty miles to the old crossroads

Tried to buy back my soul
Bet it all on just one roll
Seen a pair of snake eyes lookin' cold
When you lose it's only fair

The lord don't hear no gambler's prayer
Go tell it on the mountain now have you heard
Hell broke loose devil's outta work
I walked throught the cactus to find a rose

For my baby sweet and cold
Six foot down and on her way
To meet St. Peter at the gates....

I walked forty miles of mountain road

to sooth my temper
sooth my soul
Forty miles of mountain road
