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
