Karaoké You Gave Me a Mountain (live Elvis in Concert) Elvis Presley

Born in the heat of the desert

My mother died givin' me life

Deprived of the love of a father

Blamed for the loss of his wife

You know Lord I've been in a prison for something that I've never done

It's been one hill after another

And I've climbed them all one by one

Oh but this time

Lord you gave me a mountain

Yeah

A mountain you know I may never climb

Woo

But it isn't just a hill any longer

You gave me a mountain this time

Oh oh

My woman got tired of the heartaches

Tired of the grief and the strife

So tired of working for nothing

Just tired of being my wife

She took my one ray of sunshine

She took my pride and my joy

She took my reason for living

She took my small baby boy

Yeah this time

Lord you gave me a mountain

Yeah a mountain you know I may never climb

Ow

But it isn't just a hill any longer

You gave me a mountain this time

Yeah, Lord

You gave me a mountain

Don't you know you did

You gave me a mountain this time

A mountain

Yeah, oh, oh
