If I was on some foggy mountain top,
E
I'd sail away to the West.
A D A
I'd sail all around this whole wide world,
E A
to the girl I love the best.
A D A
If I had listened to what mama said,
E
I would not a been here today,
A D A
a-lying around this old jailhouse,
E A
a-weepin' my sweet life away.
A D A E A
Eolayee-oh, leeolayee-ay leeolayee-layee-o-ay.
A D A
Oh, when you see that girl of mine,
A D A
she need not to fool her time away,
E A
to court some other feller.
A D A
She caused me to weep, she caused me to mourn,
E
she caused me to leave my home.
A D A
Oh, the lonesome pines and those good old times,
E A
I'm on my way back home.
A D A E A
Eolayee-oh, leeolayee-ay leeolayee-layee-o-ay.
A D A
Oh, when you go a-courtin,
E
I tell you how to do,
A D A
pull off that long tail roustabout,
E A
put on your navy blue.
A D A E A
Eolayee-oh, leeolayee-ay leeolayee-layee-o-ay.
