[Verse 1]
Thereâs a war over them hills Time I kicked up my heels
Asked the boy to load my gun To get my horse ready to run
Please donât let me see you weep Hard enough for me to leave

[Verse 2]
Thereâs a war over them hills And I wonât just sit here still
Built this house with my bones Together we made it home
Let it happen one more night And Iâll be gone before dawnâs light

Theyâre gonna have to take my life Before they get to my wife
Men will die by my hand Before they take away my land

If you see guns a-blazinâ Take the boy and get to runninâ
âCause Iâll be gone, my darlinâ
