BLUE RIDGE MOUNTAIN BLUES - Bill Clifton

	 When I was young and in my prime
  	 I left my home in Caroline
  	 Now all I do is sit and pine
  	 For all the folks I left behind

	 Chorus:
	 I've got those Blue Ridge Mountain blues
	 And I stand right here to say
	 My grip is packed to travel
	 And I'm scratching gravel
	 For that Blue Ridge far away

	I'm gonna stay right by my paw
   	I'm gonna do right by my maw
   	Lay around the cabin door
   	No work or worry anymore

	Chorus:
     	I've got those Blue Ridge Mountain blues
      	Want to see my old dog Tray
      	Want to hunt the possums
      	Where the corn tops blossom
      	On that Blue Ridge far away

  	I see a window with a light
   	I see two heads of snowy white
   	It seems I can hear them both recite:
  	Where is my bluebeard boy tonight?

	Chorus:
     	I've got those Blue Ridge Mountain blues
      	And I stand right here to say
      	Every day I'm counting
     	Till I reach that mountain
     	In that Blue Ridge far away
