Blue Ridge Mountain Blues |
Earle Scruggs with John Fogerty |
|
When I was young and in my prime, |
I left my home in Caroline. |
Now all I do is sit and pine, for all those folks I left behind. |
|
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, and I sat right here to say, |
"My grip is packed to travel, and I'm back to ramble, |
To my Blue Ridge far away." |
Solo(Fiddle) |
|
I'm goin' to stay right by my Pa, I'm goin' to do right by my Ma, |
I'll hang around the cabin door, no work or worry anymore. |
|
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, gonna see my oak old tree, |
Gonna hunt the possum where the corn cob blossom, |
In my Blue Ridge far away. |
Every Now! |
Solo(Dobro) |
|
I see a haze of snowy white, @@ I see a window with light, |
I seem to hear them both sigh, "Where is my wand'rin boy tonight?" |
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, @ and I stay right @here @to say, |
"Every day I'm countin' 'til I climb that mountain, |
Ά³έΓ¨έΓ¨Ω |
In my Blue Ridge far away." |
I got the Blue Ridge mountain blues, gonna see my oak old tree, |
Gonna hunt the possum where the corn cob blossom, |
In my Blue Ridge far away. |
Solo(Banjo & Fiddle & Dobro)EEEEEEEEEEEEnding |
