Letra de Mountain Angel - Dolly Parton

Pretty as an angel from the day that she was born

Skin as fair as lilies, hair as golden as the corn

They knew that she was special

From the moment she first cried

She was a mountain angel, certify

She was her momma's baby, she was her daddy's pride

Good at home, at church and school, at everything she tried

Everybody's darling led a charmed and peaceful life

The perfect mountain angel 'til he arrived

And ohh, she fell so deeply

Ooh, she couldn't stop

She gave herself to him, yielded completely

He lifted her so high and let her drop

She gave up everything for him that mattered in her life

All the others that had loved her and she vowed to be his wife

She dreamed of bearing children in an ivy-covered house

The mountain angel's sunshine turned to clouds

The wicked handsome stranger left the way he came

Broke her heart and broke her mind

She never was the same

They say he was the devil

That had come to steal her soul

She never loved another it was told

They say she had a baby

Some say that it had died

They say it's just as well

As it had been the devil's child

They say good conquers evil

But here, evil won the prize

So the mountain angel took to the wild

And ooh, she couldn't take it

Years passed and she had long since lost her mind

She waited for him as her beauty faded

Her parents died from grief before their time

She tried to gather pieces of her life, they wouldn't fit

Beside the tiny grave deep in the woods is where she'd sit

Talking to the child, herself, to him, who knew for sure

Possessed they say by satan's insane lure

High a top the mountain, for years they say she's seen

Looking down upon the town where she had once been queen

She'd sneak around the playground, watch the little children play

They'd see the crazy lady then run away

They say she roamed these hills for years, wearing not a stitch

The lovely mountain angel now thought to be a witch

She made those wailing mournful sounds

That you could hear for miles

Long after she laid down upon her baby's grave and died

And ooh, her ghost is calling

She's waiting for the ones that she adored

Through spring and summer, fall when snow is falling

Her spirit roams these hills forever more

The mountain angel's voices ever more

Oohh, oooo

Oohh, oooo

Oohh, oooo
