Kishore Kumar Hits — David Ackles - Cabin on the Mountain lyrics

Artist: David Ackles

album: Subway To The Country

Don't you dare let the wind move into our cabin on the mountain
I just know I'll be back
I'll come home with the first green in May
They can't keep me behind walls
I get out when the ground smells of planting
So don't you dare let me down
Please stay around for my home-coming day
You were the daughter of a drummer
Moving from town to little town
Looking like a snow-flake in the summer
When I asked you to stop and settle down
We built a cabin on the mountain
We were as happy as July
When along come a drummer from Baltimore
And you left me, I thought I would die
I lived seven months in loneliness
Then come your letter: "Take me home"
When I come to fetch you from the tenement
I could see that man beat you to the bone
Then from the bedroom stepped the drummer man
Says to me "Leave go of my wife"
Lord, I wish I knew just what came over me
Wish I'd never seen a knife
Don't you dare let the wind move into our cabin on the mountain
I just know I'll be back
I'll come home with the first green in May
They can't keep me behind walls
I get out when the ground smells of planting
So don't you dare let me down
Please stay around for my home-coming day
