Blue Blue Ridge Mountain Girl

Momma barely eighteen when she stepped down from the bus

Looking for a place to make a start

Holding me in her arms and a bag of all she owned

With a heart filled with those she left behind

Now she’s a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl

Living between two worlds

Memories of home in a city cold as stone

She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

Even though she’d brought them shame she could have stayed around

Making it hard for those she loves

Walking off that mountain not knowing what she’d find

Praying we could make it on our own

She’s still a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl

Living between two worlds

Memories of home in a city cold as stone

She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

When I asked about my daddy she would only say

He was a boy not ready to be a man

I never had to miss him to tell the honest truth

Momma had love enough for two

She’s still a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl

Living between two worlds

Memories of home in a city cold as stone

She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

Yes she’s a Blue ridge blue mountain girl
