Smokey Mountain
Memories
Smokey Mountain
memories
Dot my home in Tennessee
Yesterday keeps
calling me
Calling me home
Mountains rising
in my soul
Higher than the
dreams I’ve known
Misty eyed they
kling to me in my
Smokey mountain
memories
An old gray man
with a dog asleep at his feet
Plays a worn out
fiddle full of melody
He smiles with his
eyes but the lines on his face
Told me as much
as the tunes that he played
Talkin’ ‘bout my
Smokey Mountain
Memories
Pretty girls in
Tennessee
I was such a fool
to leave
Leave her all alone
Think about her
in my dreams
Wonder if she thinks
of me
Always holdin’ close
to me in my
Smokey Mountain
memories
So mister play your
fiddle please
Play some mountain
memories
I’ve been down a
lonely road
So far from home
Nothing left to hold on to
I made some plans
but they fell through
Now there’s nothing
left for me but my
Smokey Mountain
memories
Smokey Mountain
memories
Dot my home in Tennessee
Yesterday keeps
calling me
Calling me home
Mountains rising in my soul
Higher than the
dreams I’ve known
Misty eyed they
kling to me my
Smokey mountain
memories
