Sweet Mountain Rose

I've been around in many a town

Drinkin' away through the night

And all that I found, what goes up must come down

Oh boy, was I in for a fight?

There's a girl over there with curls in her hair

Colors that dance in her eyes

Oh, I'll pray to God, and I'll go to church

If you'll be my angel tonight

I want you to know

My heart's on fire like whiskey deep down in my soul

You're one in a million, yeah, you are my sweet mountain rose

With you by my side for the rest of my life

Darling, you're one in a million, I know

Please take me home, my sweet mountain rose

I'm not afraid, I'm gallant and bold

But something's gotta hold on my tongue

And somehow through my evening tones

My courage is second to none

I asked for a kiss and she didn't miss

A taste of Bruichladdich on ice

Oh, I'll pray to God, and I'll go to church

If you'll be my angel for life

I want you to know

My heart's on fire like whiskey deep down in my soul

You're one in a million, yeah, you are my sweet mountain rose

With you by my side for the rest of my life

Darling, you're one in a million, I know

Please take me home, my sweet mountain rose, oh

Please take me home

One in a million, my mountain rose

Forever with you by my side

Now I pray to God and I go to church

'Cause I found my angel that night
