In The Mountains Lyrics

Alfred Packer went into the mountains with his mining team They were looking for gold in the mountains to be rich and happy They were lost while it snowed in the mountains then met an Indian chief The chief said there's death in the mountains go back or death you'll meet Alfred said there's gold in the mountains convinced his mining team They were starving walking in the mountains with little food to eat In a trapper's hut high in the mountains their last meal they would eat When the men fell asleep in the mountains Alfred killed his mining team Alfred searched the men in the mountains and took all their money Alfred sat and stared in the mountains at his dead mining team He cut up the men in the mountains for some food to eat Found a town walking back from the mountains and went to take a peek Left the meat in the snow in the mountains then off to town was he Went to jail for his deeds in the mountains and was finally released
