The Marshall Tucker Band - Blue Ridge Mountain Sky lyrics

It's a lonesome road And a hard way to live But it's the only life that I know I met some people, I traveled around But home's always the best place to go It's a lonesome feeling in my mind A feeling that I can't leave behind Carolina's where I'm at, and I'll always hang my hat Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies I got me a woman back home She gave me a baby, too And she stands by my loving side and Does anything I ask her to It's a lonesome feeling in my mind A feeling I can't seem to leave behind Carolina's where I'm at, and I'll always hang my hat Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies There's an old man, sittin' in a rockin' chair He's got the best beagle dog in the county I've been told But his shotgun done got too rusty That 'ole beagle dog he done grown a little too old As he stares up into heaven, I'm sure I know the reason why He's thinking about that promised land in them Blue Ridge Mountain skies It's a lonesome feeling in my mind A feeling I can't seem to leave behind Carolina's where I'm at, and I'll always hang my hat Under those Blue Ridge Mountain skies
