He met her in the fall of '93 in the hills of Tennessee
|
She was barely 17, he was tall and strong and lean
|
They were deep in love by June
|
Hand in hand beneath that moon
|
|
And she sang a little blue ridge mountain song
|
And he'd just hum along
|
And they'd dance all night till dawn
|
On a hillside all alone
|
|
They were young and they were free
|
Like a mountain melody
|
In love as they could be
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
|
She married in her mama's wedding gown
|
Bought a house and settled down
|
He worked driving all around
|
All at large from town to town
|
And he'd come home every night
|
And she'd be waiting in the front porch light
|
|
And she'd sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
And he'd just hum along
|
And they'd dance all night till dawn
|
On the front porch all alone
|
|
They were young and they were free
|
Like a mountain melody
|
In love as they could be
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
|
They couldn't tell him what was wrong
|
But they just didn't know
|
It wasn't very long until Jesus called her home
|
And he got down on his knees
|
Said "God don't take my love from me"
|
|
Just let her sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Like she has all along
|
And I'll dance with her till dawn
|
On a hill side all alone
|
|
And we'll spend eternity like a mountain melody
|
In love as we can be
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
|
Now he lives there all alone
|
In the house that they call home
|
In his heart there lies a void (?)
|
From the absence of her voice
|
|
And he lays down every night
|
Dreams about that front porch light
|
Where she sang a little blue ridge mountain song
|
And he'd just hum along
|
And they'd dance all night until dawn
|
On the hillside all alone
|
|
They were young and they were free
|
Like a mountain melody
|
In love as they could be
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
|
Little blue ridge mountain song
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Singing that blue ridge song
|
Sing a little blue ridge mountain song
|
Sing a little blue ride mountain song
|
Little blue ridge mountain song
|
