Mountain Music

Alabama

R1: Oh, play me some mountain music
    like grandma and grandpa used to play 
    Then I'll float on down the riv-er
    to a Ca-jun hidea-way.

1. Drift away like Tom Sawyer
   Ride a raft with ol' Huck Finn
   Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle,

R2: Oh, play me some mountain music
    like grandma and grandpa used to play 
    Then I'll float on down the riv-er
    to a Ca-jun hidea-way.

(solo)

2. Swim across the river
   Just to prove that I'm a man
   Spend the day bein' lazy
   Just bein' nature's friend

3. Climb a long tall hick'ry
   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 something with lots of feel-in'
   'cause that's where music has to start.

R2: Oh, play me some mountain music...
