Lyrics

[00:02.56] .
[00:16.31] I woke up this morning to the hummin' of the engines
[00:23.69] Haulin' nature's finest from the Gulf of Mexico
[00:30.75] Riding this ol' river is peaceful but it's lonesome
[00:38.08] And it makes me wonder how the old folks are at home
[00:43.14] .
[00:44.08] Now the years have blown by me like the wind through the pines
[00:51.95] But the song of the south is ever sweet as homemade wine
[00:58.96] Oh, how I miss those mountains when the laurels are in bloom
[01:06.54] And the southern stars are dancin' 'round a North Carolina moon
[01:13.40] .
[01:27.29] Just rolled through Memphis, I could hear them guitars playin'
[01:34.58] They had the blues so bad it almost broke my heart
[01:41.82] But it don't sound nothing like a band of tree frogs singin'
[01:49.14] When every now and then they'd get in tune with grandpa's harp
[01:53.95] .
[01:55.09] Now the years have blown by me like the wind through the pines
[02:02.82] But the song of the south is ever sweet as homemade wine
[02:09.85] Oh, how I miss those mountains when the laurels are in bloom
[02:17.16] And the southern stars are dancin' 'round a North Carolina moon
[02:23.61] .
[02:56.28] Now when I die boys, make me this promise
[03:03.60] You'll send my body back up North Carolina way
[03:10.75] I don't want no tombstone, just lay me next to mama
[03:18.31] And let the honeysuckle grow wild upon my grave
[03:23.56] .
[03:24.12] Now the years have blown by me like the wind through the pines
[03:31.83] But the song of the south is ever sweet as homemade wine
[03:38.95] Oh, how I miss those mountains when the laurels are in bloom
[03:46.45] And the southern stars are dancin' 'round a North Carolina moon
[03:55.35] Yeah, the southern stars are dancin' 'round a North Carolina moon
[04:08.44] North Carolina moon
[04:13.27] .
[04:13.77] Oh, how I miss those mountains when the laurels are in bloom
[04:17.70] Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
[04:24.58] Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
[04:31.08] .
