I Left My Gal In The Mountains Lyrics - Hank Thompson

I LEFT MY GAL IN THE MOUNTAINS 

(Carson J. Robison) 

'59 MCA Music 

 

I left my gal in the mountains I left her standing in the rain 

I went down to the depot caught myself a midnight train 

Made my way down to Georgia land it in a gambling town 

Got myself in trouble cause I shot a county sheriff down 

The jury read my verdict murder in the first degree 

The judge said take that prisoner to the penitentiary 

They put the handcuffs on me put me on the pullman train 

Took me to Atlanta tied me to a ball and chain 

I left my gal in the mountains I left her standing all alone 

Last night I dreamed I got a letter saying baby won't you please come home 

She told me that she loved me said that she loved me true 

Then I dreamed I wrote a letter saying I'm a coming home to you 

Then I awoke up this morning lyin' in Atlanta jail 

No one here to love me no one to go my bail 

Prison bars all around me the guard walking by my door 

I'm so sad and lonely cause I'll never see my gal no more 

I'll never see my gal no more
