3:03I could see the pride in your eyes When you got the news that day 60 hours a week, tires on a Jeep And you'd have off every 12 days I never thought that mistress in the mountain Might take you away from me But sometimes you've gotta dance with the devil To put shoes on baby's feet So I'll pack your lunch and send you off into the dark I pray that mine won't steal you from me like you stole my heart And I will wait for you 'til you're gray and old And if that mountain calls you home, with you, I will go I will wait for you 'til those hills run out of coal And the county company folds and we all go broke I spend my honeymoon in the livin' room And you spend yours down in the mines But at age 19, yeah, that was fine with me But it gets harder over time When you're home, go straight to bed 'cause you're too tired to speak Darlin', I don't mind the lonely or the ashes in the sheets And I will wait for you 'til you're gray and old And if that mountain calls you home, with you, I will go I will wait for you 'til those hills run out of coal And the county company folds and we all go broke And I will wait for you and when we get old and gray I'll thank the good Lord every day that we got there And I will wait for you even if that mountain wins I won't let this be the end, I won't give up hope Love don't go broke
