My Clinch Mountain Home - The Carter Family

Far away on the hills
To a sunny mountainside
Many years ago we parted
My little Ruth and I
From this sunny mountainside

She clung to me and trembled
When I told her we must part
She said "Don't go, my darling
It almost breaks my heart
To think of you so far apart"

Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my Clinch Mountain home
Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my old Mountain home

Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lay-ee
Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lee
Yeah, lee-oh-lay-ee-hee
Oh, my mountain home

Fold my arms around her
Leaned her head upon my breast
I told her I would wed her
When I came back from the west
At my old Clinch Mountain home

In my hand I hold a picture
Of the old home far away
In the other one my sweetheart
I'm thinking of today
On the sunny mountainside

Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my Clinch Mountain home
Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my old Mountain home

Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lay-ee
Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lee
Yeah, lee-oh-lay-ee-hee
Oh, my mountain home

My mother's old and feeble
My father's getting gray
I'm going back to Virginny
And I expect to stay
At my old Clinch Mountain home

Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my Clinch Mountain home
Carry me back to old Virginny
Back to my old Mountain home

Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lay-ee
Well, a-le-ho, le-ho-lee
Yeah, lee-oh-lay-ee-hee
Oh, my mountain home
