Old black mountain Tried to spit in your face Old black mountain Tried to spit in your face Baby's grubbing whiskey Oh, she's practicing Old black mountain Mean as they can be Old black mountain Mean as they can be They use gunpowder Just to sweeten the tea Had a girl in black mountain Sweetest girl in town Had a girl in black mountain Sweetest girl in town But she met a sweet black man And then she threw me down Well, old black mountain Can't keep man in jail Old black mountain Can't keep man in jail Sure we call him guilty Judge will cry and bail Come back to black mountain Me, my razor and my gun Come back to black mountain Me and my razor, my gun Gonna cut her if she stands there And shoot her if she runs
