The Foggy Mountain Top |
If I was on some foggy mountain top |
I’d sail away to the west |
I’d sail around this whole wide world |
To the girl I love the best |
If I had listened what mama says |
I would not have been here today |
A-lying around this old jail house |
A-weeping my sweet life away |
Yeah, oh-lay-ee-oh, lee-oh-la-ee-ay |
Lee-oh-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee |
Oh, if you see that girl of mine |
There’s something you must tell her |
She need not be fooling no time away |
To court some other feller |
Oh, she’s caused me to weep, she’s caused me to mourn |
She caused me to leave my home |
For the lonesome pine and the good old times |
I’m on my way back home |
Oh, when you go a-courting |
I’ll tell you how to do |
Pull off that long-tailed roustabout |
Put on your navy blue |
