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
