《Smoky Mountain Memories》歌词

时长： 04:10

You ought to go north somebody told us[00:00:00]

Cause the air is filled with gold dust[00:00:06]

And fortune falls like snow flakes in your hands[00:00:10]

Now I don't recall who said it[00:00:16]

But we'd lived so long on credit[00:00:20]

And so we headed out to find our promised land[00:00:24]

Just poor Smoky Mountains farm folk[00:00:31]

With nothing more than high hopes[00:00:36]

So we hitched our station wagon to a star[00:00:39]

But our dreams all fell in on us[00:00:46]

Cause there was no land of promise[00:00:50]

Though it's a stuggle just keepin' sight of who you are[00:00:54]

Oh and these northern nights are dreary[00:01:00]

And my southern heart is weary[00:01:04]

As I wonder how the old folks are back home[00:01:08]

But I know that they all love me[00:01:15]

And they're all thinking of me[00:01:19]

The Smoky Mountains memories keep me strong[00:01:24]

You know I've been thinkin' a whole lot lately[00:01:29]

About what's been and what awaits me[00:01:34]

It takes all I've got to give what life demands[00:01:38]

You go insane if you give in to it[00:01:44]

Life's a mill and I've been through it[00:01:49]

I'm just thankful I'm creative with my hands[00:01:52]

Oh and these northern nights they're dreary[00:01:59]

And my southern eyes are teary[00:02:03]

As I wonder how the old folks are back home[00:02:07]

But I'll keep leanin' on my Jesus[00:02:14]

He'll love and guide and lead us[00:02:19]

The Smoky Mountains memories keep me strong[00:02:23]

If I'll keep looking to the father[00:02:29]

Keep our heads above the water[00:02:33]

While the Smoky Mountains memories keep me strong[00:02:48]
