Foggy Mountain Top

(Album: Story Songs Of Mountains And Valleys - 1964)

If I was on some foggy mountain top
I'd sail away to the west
I'd sail all around this whole wide world
To the girl I love the best

If I had listened to what mama said
I would not have been here today
Just lying around this old jailhouse
Weeping my poor life away

If I was on some foggy mountain top
I'd sail away to the west
I'd sail all around this whole wide world
To the girl I love the best

Oh, whenever you see that girl of mine
There's something you must tell her
She need not fool no time away
Courting some other feller

(Yes you caused me to weep)
(Yes, you caused me to moan)
(You caused me to leave my home)
(Oh, that lonesome pine)
(And those good ole times)
(Have marred my way back home.)

If I was on some foggy mountain top
I'd sail away to the west
I'd sail all around this whole wide world
To the girl I love the best

If I was on some foggy mountain top
I'd sail away to the west
I'd sail all around this whole wide world
To the girl I love the best...
