Blue Ridge Mountain Song

Intro: Met her in the fall of 93 in the hills of Tennessee She was barely seventeen He was tall and strong and lean They were deep in love by June Hand in hand beneath that moon And she'd sing a little blue ridge mountain song And he'd just hum along. They'd dance all night til dawn On a hillside all alone, they were young and they were free Like a mountain melody True lovers they could be Singin' that blue ridge song. Married in her momma's wedding gown, bought a house and settled down He was drivin' all around, haulin' logs from town to town And he'd come home every night, 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. They'd dance all night til dawn On a hillside all alone, they were young and they were free Like a mountain melody True lovers they could be Singin' that blue ridge song. They couldn't tell him what was wrong. They just didn't know. It wasn't very long, til Jesus called her home Then he got down on his knees, God don't take my love from me, Just let her sing a little blue ridge mountain song Like she has all along. I’ll dance with her til dawn, On a hillside all alone And we'll spend eternity, like a mountain melody In love as we can be singin' that blue ridge song Now I live there all alone, in the house that they called home In his heart there lies a void, from the absence of her voice And he lays down every night, And dreams about that front porch light Where she'd sing a little blue ridge mountain song. And he'd just hum along, they'd dance all night til dawn On the hillside all alone. They were young and they were free Like a mountain melody, In love as they could be-e Makin' that blue ridge song.
