Lyrics

Goin' around Red Mountain in the mornin'
 
 Goin' around Red Mountain sure's you born
 ♪
 And if you never, never no more see me again
 Remember me when I'm gone
 ♪
 Now sit down and write a letter for me
 And send it straight to the man I love
 ♪
 Just tell him, when you find him, I'll be gone
 A-roamin' the road above
 ♪
 Down in the valley, my head was hangin' low
 My poor heart was achin', he'd hurt me so
 Fortune teller told me what I had to do
 Get myself some snake rue, sold right in the tube
 Got myself some snake rue, you'll come the zoo
 Use them both together, I know what they will do
 Took some in my pocket, put some in my booze
 That don't make him love me, I'll saw right in the tube
 Goin' around Red Mountain in a hurry
 ♪
 I'm goin' where I can change my mind
 
 And if I can't get rid of all my worries
 Then I'll be gone for a long-long time
