kristofferson kris - Stagger Mountain Tragedy слова песни
I was born on Stagger Mountain in the sunshine and the snowAnd leavin` was the first mistake I made;But I hungered for the shadows in the valley down belowAnd the girl that danced the tune the devil played.Her smile was like the blindin` light of sunshine on the snowAnd the flashin` of her hair was black as sin.And her body set the smokes of hell a-boilin` in my skullWhen the fiddle of the devil made her spin.Morning sunshine [sunshine] high on the mountain,Where the air is pure and cold;But there`s darkness in the shadowsIn the canyons of my soul.The lantern cast a shadow like a demon on the wallAnd the naked sweat was breathin` on her skin;Then the room was spinning closer as her clothes began to fallAnd the eagle started screamin` in my brain;Then I saw the laughin` dagger and I heard the devil screamAnd her bleeding heart was beating in my hand.Then the darkness blew away and I was standin` by a treeWith a hanging rope a-danglin` from a limb.Morning sunshine [sunshine] high on the mountain,where the air is pure and cold;But there`s darkness in the shadowsin the canyons of my soul.
