"California Poem" lyrics

Jamey Johnson Lyrics

"California Poem"
(feat. Sam Bush, Jerry Douglas)
(originally by Johnny Cash)

There's trouble on the mountain
And the valley's full of smoke
There's cryin' on the mountain
And again the same heart broke
The lights are on past midnight
The curtain's closed all day
There's trouble on the mountain
The valley people say

The valley is a rumble
The mountain is ablaze
Voices crack and crumble
And again the same heart breaks
Clouds of scattered ashes
Blackin' out the sun
There's trouble on the mountain
Everybody run

The lights are on past midnight
The curtain's closed all day
There's cryin' on the mountain
The valley people say
Clouds of scattered ashes
Blackin' out the sun
There's trouble on the mountain
Everybody run
