Lyrics Mountain Home - The Ranchhands

Mountain Home

Oh mountain home, the
lord shines upon you
And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light
Where the razorbacks run free through the bloomin'
dogwood trees
And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night
Granddaddy came from
the Tennessee hills
With the clothes on his back and a five dollar bill,
oh oh Mountain Home
Lookin' for a better life west of the river
Got a job in the mine just to get through the winter,
oh oh Mountain Home
And when that five o’clock whistle blew
The boys in the hills all knew it was time to drink homebrew on the front porch
And pick Ozark Mountain tunes singin'
Oh mountain home, the lord shines upon you
And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light
Where the razorbacks run
free through the bloomin'
dogwood trees
And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night
Shotgun house with a
hard dirt floor
Saved his money bought
the land next door,
oh oh Mountain Home
Planted his seeds where the rich dirt lay
Then he prayed to the lord for the sun and the rain,
oh oh Mountain Home
And then when the
cotton plants grew
The boys in the fields all knew it was time to drink homebrew on the front porch
And pick Ozark Mountain
tunes singin'
Oh mountain home, the lord shines upon you
And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light
Where the razorbacks run free through the bloomin'
dogwood trees
And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night
