| Chorus:
|
| Oh, play me some mountain music
|
| Like grandma and grandpa used to play
|
| Then I’ll float on down the river
|
| To a Cajun hideaway
|
| Drift away like Tom Sawyer
|
| Ride a raft with ol' Huck Finn
|
| Take a nap like Rip Van Winkle
|
| Days dreamin' again
|
| (Repeat Chorus)
|
| Swim across the river
|
| Just to prove I’m a man
|
| Spend the day bein' lazy
|
| Just bein' nature’s friend
|
| Climb a long tall hick’ry
|
| Bend it over «skinnin' cats»
|
| Playin' baseball with chert rocks
|
| Usin' sawmill stabs for bats
|
| Bridge:
|
| Play some back-home come-on music
|
| That comes from the heart
|
| Play something with lots of feelin'
|
| 'Cause that’s where music has to start
|
| (Repeat Chorus)
|
| Then I’ll float on down the river
|
| To a Cajun hideaway, hey hey
|
| Tag:
|
| Oh play me mountain music
|
| Oh play me mountain music
|
| Oh play me mountain music
|
| Oh play me mountain music |
