Steve Earle - The Girl On The Mountain Lyrics






There's a girl up on the mountain I once knew
I let her go and now I'm sad and blue
But sometimes late at night I pray
She'd come down to me some day
But the girl up on the mountain never knew

So she gave herself to someone else back then
Thought I'd never see her face again
I found a new love of my own
Broke my heart and now she's gone
But the girl up on the mountain still remain

I wish I may, I wish I might
Won't every star see the night
A million diamonds up above
Shine down on the one I love

The poets have a thousand tales to tell
Oh, the battle of love it didn't work out well
And me I sleep out right tonight
'Cause here my dream'll hold up tight
But the girl up on the mountain's up at still
Oh, and I love her now, guess I always will

    Well done on the sound engineering for this recording. It sounds fantastic. Way better than the original. His voice sounds like it's right inside my head. I can see you used the Gemini for his voice, but what mic did you use inside the guitar? After hearing this, I can't help wondering what Nora Jones would sound like with this setup. Maybe you should ask her to swing by.
