[Intro: Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz & Aoife O'Donovan]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
[Chorus: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
Do not cross over
Don't get youself undone
Do not cross over
The other side is a wild one
[Verse 1: Watkins]
They say that there are mountains
Goodbye wind and snow
I want to climb the hillside
But I hear the women wail
Of a cautionary tale
[Verse 2: Watkins/Jarosz & O'Donovan/Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
It starts with just a whisper (ooh)
Calling me to stay (ooh)
Why would you want to leave us (ooh)
Everything we gave
And everything we made
Singing
[Chorus: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
Do not cross over
Don't get youself undone
Do not cross over
The other side is a wild one
[Verse 3: Watkins/Jarosz & O'Donovan/Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
Where once there was a fire
Is only ash and stone (ooh)
Where once there was a city
There are ghosts of feeling old
And they're kicking up the bones
Singing
[Chorus: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
Do not cross over
Don't get youself undone
Do not cross over
The other side is a wild one
[Outro: Watkins, Jarosz & O'Donovan]
The other side is a wild one
The other side is a wild one
