Every day is a gamble, if you really gonna make it through
When you live on the side of a mountain, and the babies all need food

As the youngest one among us, I got sick and could not eat
Daddy prayed to accept his fate, but Momma would not heed

(Chorus)Carry me across the mountain, before it is too late
Heal my broken body, Death not be my fate
Carry me across the mountain, don't give up on me
I am but a helpless child whose life depends on thee

Daddy warned against it, said "You may not make it through."
Momma wrapped me in her arms, crying "What else can I do?"

There's a place across the mountain top, across the mountain side
They say there is a doctor there who might save our baby's life

(Chorus)

Now I stand upon the mountain top before my mother's grave
And every year I visit here to thank her for that day

(Chorus)
