From a shack by a mountain stream[00:00:00]
To a room in New Orleans[00:00:05]
So far from my Blue Ridge Mountain home[00:00:11]
The men I meet ain't warm and friendly[00:00:20]
Like the one in old Virginie[00:00:25]
Oh they ain't real like my Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:00:30]
I was just a little past eighteen[00:00:40]
When I came to New Orleans[00:00:45]
I'd never been beyond my home state line[00:00:50]
There was a boy who loved me dearly[00:00:59]
But I broke his heart severely[00:01:04]
When I left my Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:01:09]
Life was dull in my hometown[00:01:19]
Lights were out when the sun went down[00:01:24]
And I thought that city life was more my style[00:01:28]
But nights get lonely away from home[00:01:38]
And it's easy to go wrong[00:01:43]
The men ain't kind like my Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:01:48]
New Orleans held things in store[00:02:01]
Things I'd never bargained for[00:02:06]
And every night a different man knocks on my door[00:02:11]
But late at night when all is still[00:02:20]
I can hear a whippoorwill[00:02:25]
As I cry for my Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:02:30]
Oh but I can never go back home[00:02:39]
Since the boy I love is gone[00:02:44]
He grew tired of waiting for me to return[00:02:48]
They say he married last October[00:02:57]
But I never will get over[00:03:02]
Oh the sweet love of my Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:03:06]
Blue Ridge Mountain boy[00:03:13]
