"Smokey Mountain Memories" Lyrics

[Chorus]
Smoky Mountain memories about my home in Tennessee
Yesterday keeps calling me, calling me home
Mountains rising in my soul, higher than the dreams I know
Misty-eyed they cling to me, my Smoky Mountain memories

[Verse 1]
An old gray man with a dog asleep at his feet
Plays a worn-out fiddle full of melodies
He smiled with his eyes but the lines on his face
Told me as much as the tunes he played

[Chorus]
Talking 'bout my Smoky Mountain memories, pretty girl from Tennessee
I was such a fool to leave, leave her all alone
Think about her in my dreams, I wonder if she thinks of me
I'll always hold her close to me and my Smoky Mountain memories

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
So Mister, play your fiddle please, play some mountain memories
I've been down a lonely road so far from home
Nothing left to hold onto, I made some plans but they fell through
Now there's nothing left for me but my Smoky Mountain memories

[Chorus]
Smoky Mountain memories about my home in Tennessee
Yesterday keeps calling me, calling me home
Mountains rising in my soul, higher than the dreams I know
Misty-eyed they cling to me, my Smoky Mountain memories, mmm hmm
