lyrics

Mansion Mountain Prison

words and music by: Richard Melvin Brown (SOCAN)

Verse One:

She would meet in the morning with the softness of her smile

She'd make me toast and coffee and we'd talk awhile

We'd talk about tomorrow, all our future plans we made

A big house on Mansion Mountain and a love that would never fade

Verse Two:

It was just a two room walkup with a sofa for a bed

But it was all we really needed if we'd only known back then

Yes I can still remember sharing dreams of days ahead

A big house on Mansion Mountain and a love that would never end

Chorus:

But now I'm just an inmate in Mansion Mountain Prison

I'm a ward of my own ace of hearts and I'm playing solitaire

This big house on Mansion Mountain is now my lonely prison cell

And my one and only cellmate is her picture on the wall

Verse Three:

You know I never even noticed the hunger in her heart

And how my road from rags to riches was driving us apart

She left me in the morning and I didn't even see

How this big house on Mansion Mountain had taken her from me

REPEAT CHORUS
