I wanna go home again to see my mountain friends
Spring-time opens up my heart
Makes me want to share that good ole mountain air
Life's so young and free for all
For those who answer the Blue Ridge Mountains call
I wanna go home again to see my mountain friends
Sun-rise drinks the morning dew
Walking on new plowed ground distant cowbells sound
T-all t-rees reach the misty blue
And all their leaves of green are shadows on a mountain stream
Dog-wood and mountain laurel bloom
A welcome mat for nature's living room
I wanna go home again to see my mountain friends
N-ight t-ime gathers in the crowd
Listen to the children sing hear the banjos ring
Comes from lonely hill the song of a whippoorwill
Old time fiddles that I hear
Play the tunes that I love so dear
I wanna go home again to see my mountain friends
