Carry Me Back to the Mountains

Unknown

Key

Verse

Carry me back to the mountains

Back beneath the southern sky

Lay me to rest in the mountains

There's where my sweetheart lies

Verse

I get so lonesome and weary

No matter where I roam

So carry me back to the mountains

Back to my home sweet home

Verse

I was a wild careless youngster

Longing to roam from the start

I left my home in the mountains

And broke my poor darling's heart

Verse

I caught a train at the crossing

And never told her goodbye

Then someone wrote me a letter

And told me my sweetheart had died

Carry Me Back to the Mountains | Lonesome
