In A Mansion Stands My Love Lyrics - Del Reeves

On a mountain stands a mansion so fine 

And it looks down on this cabin of mine 

I had a love and I loved her true 

But along came a rich man and he loved her to 

Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love 

Well he promised he'd buy her diamond rings 

Yes he promised fancy dresses and things 

Promised everything indeed 

But it can't buy a love that her poor heart needs 

On a mountain in a mansion stand my love 

[ dobro ] 

Now I know that she's not happy there 

And I know that she's got thing to bare 

My only dream is that someday 

She'll come right back here with me and stay 

In the cabin in the valley with me 

On a mountain stands a mansion so fine... 

Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love 

Now on the mountain in a mansion stands my love
