You Gave Me A Mountain Lyrics - Aloha From Hawaii - Via Satellite - Elvis Presley

Born in the heat of the desert 

My mother died giving me life 

Deprived of the love of a father 

Blamed for the loss of his wife 

You know Lord I've been in a prison 

For something that I never done 

It's been one hill after another 

I've climbed them all one by one 

But this time, Lord you gave me a mountain 

A mountain you know I may never climb 

It isn't just a hill any longer 

You gave me a mountain this time

My woman got tired of heartaches 

Tired of the grief and the strife 

So tired of working for nothing 

Just tired of being my wife 

She took my one ray of sunshine 

She took my pride and my joy 

She took my reason for living 

She took my small baby boy

But this time, Lord you gave me a mountain 

A mountain you know I may never climb 

It isn't just a hill any longer 

You gave me a mountain this time
