Mountain Music

Oh, play me some mountain music

Like Grandma and Grandpa used to play

Then I'll float on down the river

To a Cajun hideaway

Drift away like Tom Sawyer

Ride a raft with ol' Huck Finn

Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle

Daze dreamin' again

Oh, play me some mountain music

Like Grandma and Grandpa used to play

Then I'll float on down the river

To a Cajun hideaway

Swim across that river

Just to prove that I'm a man

Spend the day bein' lazy

Just bein' nature's friend

Climb a long, tall hickory

Bend it over, skinnin' cats

Playin' baseball with chert rocks

Usin' sawmill slabs for bats

Play some back-home, come-on music

That comes from the heart

Play somethin' with lots of feelin'

That's where music has to start

Oh, play me some mountain music

Like Grandma and Grandpa used to play

Then I'll float on down the river

To a Cajun hideaway, hey, hey
