Oh, but this time, Lord, You gave me a mountain, A mountain I may never climb, It isn't, Lord, a hill any longer, You gave me a mountain this time. My woman got tired of heartaches, Tired of the grief and the strife, So tired of workin' for nothing, Just tired of bein' my wife. She took my one ray of sunshine, She took my pride and my joy, She took my reason for living, She took my small baby boy. Woh, this time, Lord you gave me a mountain, A mountain I may never climb, And it isn't a hill any longer, You gave me a mountain this time. You gave me a mountain this time. A mountain this time, oh oh woh.

That's right, you're wrong again, Time to change And put you on your own again. You've had your way too long, Time for me to be moving on. You gotta stop, you're wrong again, Stop that song again, You've been steppin' out, Wild and fancy free, Now you've had your fun And you're running back to me. It just can't be, if there's no harmony, Then stop! That's all, let's break it up, You had me fooled, Now I'm waking up. I see right through your lies, You made me open my eyes. You gotta stop, you're wrong again, Stop that song again, It's too late now, I've made up my mind, Being here with you Was just a waste of time. Nothing to say, so I'll be on my way, Stop! You gotta stop, you're wrong again, Stop that song again, It's too late now, I've made up my mind, Being here with you Was just a waste of time. It just can't be, if there's no harmony, Then stop! Stop, you're wrong again, Stop that song again. Stop, you're wrong again, You gotta stop that song again, Stop!
