lyrics

Mountainside

Words and music by Nickolas Travis

Go tell it on the mountain
Go yell it at the sky
Say a prayer for our sons and our daughters
They’ll be hanging from the mountainside
They’re hanging from the mountainside

It was always so easy to lie cheat and maim
Bad deeds pour out of me like the sky pours out the rain
I try to contain them and mostly I can
There’s only so much water can be held by a dam

A time always comes when the walls overflow
And flood all the houses in the towns down below
And as it rolls through I’ll float along top
God have mercy on the souls wherever I stop

The places fly by like clouds I the sky
And I’m rolling in like fog in the night
So board up your windows and sure up your doors
There’s a flood a’comin’ you’re not safe anymore

They’re coming after you
(Run run run)
Climb it up the mountainside
You’re only hope to get out alive
If you make it on time
You just might see the water peak before it subsides
