[Verse 1]
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 I've never done
It's been one hill after another
But I've climbed them all one by one
[Chorus]
But this time, you gave me a mountain
A mountain that I may never climb
And it isn't a hill any longer
You gave me a mountain this time
[Verse 2]
My woman got tired of the hardships
Tired of the grief and the strife
So tired of working for nothing
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
Oh, she took my small baby boy
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 I've never done
It's been one hill after another
But I've climbed them all one by one
[Chorus]
But this time, you gave me a mountain
A mountain that I may never climb
And it isn't a hill any longer
You gave me a mountain this time
[Verse 2]
My woman got tired of the hardships
Tired of the grief and the strife
So tired of working for nothing
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
Oh, she took my small baby boy
