Lookout Mountain Lyrics by Riley Green
(Feat. Randy Owen)
From the top of lookout mountain
You can see Georgia, Alabama
And all the way to the Carolina coast
And that train in Chattanooga
Was a hell of a place to lose her
I spent all damn night watching her go
So lookout mountain there she goes
Where she stops nobody knows
She might be halfway across the state
From here she looks so close
Lookout heartbreak here I come
Cause right now she’s on the run
And over the edge is the only way around it
So lookout whiskey, lookout lonely, lookout mountain
That speed trap in [?]
Didn’t even slow her down
I kept prayin’ I would see those taillights glow
But, I knew she was really leavin’
When she topped over ol’ mount eagle
How can I be up so high and still feel so damn low
Lookout mountain there she goes
Where she stops nobody knows
She might be halfway across the state
From here she looks so close
Lookout heartbreak here I come
Cause right now she’s on the run
And over the edge is the only way around it
So lookout whiskey, lookout lonely, lookout mountain
Yeah, lookout mountain
She’s the only thing that’ll keep me from fallin’ down it
And she just passed the last place to turn around in
So lookout mountain there she goes
Where she stops nobody knows
She might be halfway across the state
But, from here she still looks so close
Lookout heartbreak here I come
Cause right now she’s on the run
And over the edge is the only way around it
Goin’ over the edge is the only way around it
So lookout whiskey, lookout lonely, lookout mountain
You better lookout mountain
Lookout mountain
