Lookin' Down Below

It’s high on the mountain top looking down below
That’s where I left my love seven years ago, seven years ago
She told me that she loved me right before I left
But that was seven years ago I ain’t seen that girl yet
I ain’t seen that girl yet

I looked down off this mountain the climb it ain’t too steep
I think about that mountain stream the waters cool and deep

It’s high on the mountain top looking down below
That’s where I left my love seven years ago, seven years ago

It’s high on the mountain top looking down below
I wonder what that girl was thinking seven years or so seven years or so
I think about the trouble I hope the time will mend
I should have realized the risk and all the time I’d spent
Yes all the time I’d spent

Well now the time is over the debt it has been paid
For a thirty dollar wedding band I pulled seven years today
Today was my last day

I looked down off this mountain the climb it ain’t too steep
I think about that mountain girl waiting there for me

It’s high on the mountain top looking down below
That’s where I left my love seven years ago, seven years ago
That’s where I left my love seven years ago
