Blue on the mountain
Blue in my soul
So many people
I don’t even know
Axe in my chest
Hook in my back
Tied to four horses
With a whip and a lash
Oh woe is me
Said little sparrow
My mother used to sing
When I was young
Blue on the mountain
Blue in my soul
So many people
I don’t even know
War in my head
Run for my life
Lead in my boots
I dream every night
Oh woe is me
Said little sparrow
My mother used to sing
When I was young
Blue on the mountain
Blue in my soul
So many people
I don’t even know
Blue on the mountain
Blue in my soul
So many people
I don’t even know
So many people
I don’t even know
