Stagger Mountain Tragedy - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]
Written by : Kris Kristofferson[00:00:01]
I was born on stagger mountain in the sunshine and the snow[00:00:11]
And leavin' was the first mistake I made[00:00:17]
But I hungered for the shadows in the valley down below[00:00:22]
And the girl that danced the tune the devil played[00:00:28]
Her smile was like the blindin' light of sunshine on the snow[00:00:34]
And the flashin' of her hair was black as sin[00:00:39]
And her body set the smokes of hell a- boilin' in my skull[00:00:45]
When the fiddle of the devil made her spin[00:00:51]
Morning sunshine sunshine high on the mountain[00:00:56]
Where the air is pure and cold[00:01:05]
But there's darkness in the shadows[00:01:10]
In the canyons of my soul[00:01:16]
The lantern cast a shadow like a demon on the wall[00:01:28]
And the naked sweat was breathin' on her skin[00:01:33]
Then the room was spinning closer as her clothes began to fall[00:01:39]
And the eagle started screamin' in my brain[00:01:45]
Then I saw the laughin' dagger and I heard the devil scream[00:01:50]
And her bleeding heart was beating in my hand[00:01:56]
Then the darkness blew away and I was standin' by a tree[00:02:02]
With a hanging rope a- danglin' from a limb[00:02:08]
Morning sunshine sunshine high on the mountain[00:02:13]
Where the air is pure and cold[00:02:21]
But there's darkness in the shadows[00:02:27]
In the canyons of my soul[00:02:32]
