Blue Ridge Mountain Blues Lyrics by Doc & Merle Watson

Sittin’ Here Pickin’ the Blues

0

[Verse 1]
When I was young and in my prime
I left my home in Caroline
And now all I do is sit and pine
For all the folks I left behind
[Chorus]
I've got them Blue Ridge mountain blues
And I'll stand right here and say
My grip is packed to travel, I'll scratching gravel
For that blue ridge far away
[Verse 2]
I can see two heads of snowy white
And in their window there is a light
It seem I can hear them both recite
Oh, where is are wandering boy tonight
[Chorus]
I've got them Blue Ridge mountain blues
And I'll stand right here and say
My grip is packed to travel, soon be scratching gravel
For that blue ridge far away
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna do right by my walk
And I'm gonna do right by my talk
I'll want to hang around that cabin door
With work or worries anymore
[Chorus]
I've got them Blue Ridge mountain blues
And I'll stand right here and say
My grip is packed to travel, soon be scratching gravel
For that blue ridge far away
