Hellfire Mountain letra

He was burning through the winter
A little fever down in the cellar left him bleeding from brow
And all the water from the river for the fever
Couldn’t keep him from the poisoning now
Oh, he took it so hard on the chin
It was winter that would do him in
For he went wild as the wolves and ran into the snow covered clouds

So that one day see that the whole world is breaking down
So that one day see that the whole world is breaking down

All the wealthy and all the waring they get a ticket
To ride a rail into the underground
All the righteous and all the tilling are celebrating
A time for making such a beautiful sound
They were raised by an old mountain man
Sprouting seeds from the skin of his hand
One day, growing a tree so that he could climb up through the clouds

So that one day see that the whole world is breaking down
So that one day see that the whole world is breaking down

All the mountain miners reaching for the gold
And the deeper they will go
In that hellfire mountain hole

All the mountain miners reaching for the gold
And the deeper they will go
In that hellfire mountain hole

And the only barter they know
Is the price of each one of their souls

All the mountain miners reaching for the gold
And the deeper they will go
In that hellfire mountain hole

And the only barter they know
Is the price of each one of their souls
And the only practice they know
Rid that old mountain man from his home

Oh, a debt for each one of your sins
It's your own hand that will do you in
And there’s no one to save you
In that hot lake of fire where you drown

And you know you miss women
When the whole world is breaking down?
And you know you miss women
When the whole world is breaking down?
You know I'm gonna be there
When the whole world is breaking down
