Took my family away from our Carolina home
Membawa keluargaku pergi dari California
Had dreams about the west and started to roam
Bermimpi tentang ke barat dan mulai melanglang buana
Six long months on a dust covered trail
Sudah 6 bulan lamanya
They say heaven's at the end
Mereka bilang ada surga di ujung sana
But so far it's been hell
Tapi sejauh ini hanya neraka
And there's fire on the mountain
Dan ada lava di gunung
Lightening in the air
Menyinari langit
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Emas di puncak dan menungguku di sana
We were digging and shifting from five to five
Kami menggali dan menggali sepanjang hari
Selling everything we found just to stay alive
Menjual apapun untuk bertahan hidup
Gold flowed free like the whiskey in the bars
Emas mengalir deras seperti whiskey di bar
Sinning was the big thin Lord
Berbuat dosa merupakan panduan
And Satan was the star
Dan setan adalah bintang
And there's fire on the mountain
Dan ada lava di gunung
Lightening in the air
Menyinari langit
Dance hall girls were the evening treat
Wanita menari merupakan ancaman sore
Empty cartridges and blood lined the gutters of the street
Peluru kosong dan darah melumuri jalanan
Men were shot down for the sake of fun
Para lelaki tertembak demi kesenangan
Or just to hear the noise of their 44 guns
Atau hanya untuk mendengar suara 44 peluru mereka
And there's fire on the mountain
Dan ada lava di gunung
Lightening in the air
Menyinari langit
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Emas di puncak dan menungguku di sana
Now my widow, she weeps by my grave
Jandaku sekarang sedang menangis di kuburan
Tears flow free for her man she couldn't save
Air mata jatuh untuk suaminya yang 'tak bisa Ia selamatkan
Shot down in cold blood by a gun that carried fame
Tertembak secara kejam oleh pistol yang membawa ketenaran
All for a useless and no good worthless claim
Semua untuk klaim yang 'tak penting
And there's fire on the mountain
Dan ada lava di gunung
Lightening in the air
Menyinari langit
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Emas di puncak dan menungguku di sana
And there's fire on the mountain
Dan ada lava di gunung
Lightening in the air
Menyinari langit
Gold in them hills and it's waiting for me there
Emas di puncak dan menungguku di sana
Waiting for me there
Menungguku di sana
