Smokey Mountain Boy
LENORE ROSENBLATT, VICTOR MILLROSE
[Chorus]
I'm just a smokey mountain boy
Come back to the hills i love
Where the tops of pine all bend in the wind
And the deep blue sky above
The closer and closer i get to home
The more excited i am
Those were the mornings i'd roll out of bed
Start the day off with a hot corn bread
Smothered in huckleberry jam
[Chorus]
I can almost hear the hounds running through the woods
Close on the trail of the hare
How i long to be with them following the hounds
A-huntin' again
Gettin' me a big old grizzly bear
[Chorus]
I traveled around and met lots of girls
No matter how many i see
I left some pretty ones behind
I know back home is where i'll find
The girl whose love is meant for me
[Chorus]
