The Foggy Mountain Top Songtext - The Carter Family

The Foggy Mountain Top - The Carter Family

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 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, when you see that girl of mine
There is something you must tell her
She need not be foolin' no time away
To court some other feller

She's caused me to weep, she's caused me to mourn
She's caused me to leave my home
For that lonesome pine and those good old times
I am on my way back home

Yeah, oh-lay-ee-oh, lee-oh-la-ee-ay
Lee-oh-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee

Oh, when you go a-courtin'
I'll tell you how to do
Pull off that long-tailed roustabout
Put on your navy blue

Yeah, oh-lay-ee-oh, lee-oh-la-ee-ay
Lee-oh-lay-ee, lay-ee, oh-lay-ee
