GRAY brushy mountain

Select language to translate this lyric

I got a home over this mountain
I'll be here 20 years to life
now Brushy Mountian has my body
but tonight my soul it will fly
I had a girl in east Kentucky
she had a man across the Tennessee line
I followed them down to the Tennessee river
with a shotgun and the devil by my side
there was a full moon risin through the cold black trees
there was something ragin deep inside of me
left their bodies lay there by that dark river
and for a moment my soul it was free
I got a home over this mountain
I'll be here 20 years to life now Brushy Mountain has my body
but tonight my soul it will fly
black bird flyin by the light of the moon
take my sorrow away with you
fly me over these misty mountains
for my life here on earth will soon be through
mother loved Jesus with all the love inside
she said oh my son seek your soul to find
salvation in Jesus will see you safely
from out of the darkness and into
the everlasting light
I got a home over this mountain
I'll be here 20 years to life
now Brushy Mountian has my body
but tonight my soul it will fly
