I Like Mountain Music |
| When the Sun goes down and the chores are through |
| There ain’t nothin' better I like to do |
| Than sit around the house when the folks ain’t home |
| And listen to the music on a gramophone |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em |
| I think the melodies are grand |
| I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki |
| But I must say you can’t beat «Turkey in the straw», by cracky! |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| To the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee |
| Came a hula girl from over the sea |
| With sparkling eyes, lips so red |
| She looked at me and then she said |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em |
| I think the melodies are grand |
| I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki |
| But I must say you can’t beat «Turkey in the straw», by cracky! |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| (Instrumental break) |
| Her flashy clothes are really neat |
| Flowing hair and dancing feet |
| When she does the hula, she can drive you wild |
| Swingin' and swayin' in the mountain style |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em |
| I think the melodies are grand |
| I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki |
| But I must say you can’t beat «Turkey in the straw», by cracky! |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| (Instrumental break) |
| While the fiddles play and the guitars ring |
| The people laugh, you can hear them sing |
| This hula girl can swing and sway |
| You can hear her shout to the break of day |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
| Give me rural rhythm, let me sway right with 'em |
| I think the melodies are grand |
| I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki |
| But I must say you can’t beat «Turkey in the straw», by cracky! |
| I like mountain music, good old mountain music |
| Played by a real hillbilly band |
