Born in the heat of the desertMy mother died givin' me lifeDeprived of the love of a fatherBlamed for the loss of his wifeYou know Lord I've been in a prisonFor something that I've never doneIt's been one hill after anotherAnd I've climbed them all one by oneOh but this time Lord you gave me a mountain,A mountain you know I may never climbIt isn't just a hill any longerYou gave me a mountain this timeMy woman got tired of the heartachesTired of the grief and the strife,So tired of working for nothingJust tired of being my wifeShe took my one ray of sunshineShe took my pride and my joyShe took my reason for livingShe took my small baby boyYeah but this time Lord you gave me a mountain, A mountain I may never climbIt isn't a hill any longerYou gave me a mountain this timeYeah Lord, You gave me a mountainDon't you know You gave me a mountain this time Aus Songtexte Mania
