C F G C
Woke up this morning to the humming of the engines
C F G C
Hauling nature's finest from the Gulf of Mexico
C F G C
Ridin' this ol' river is peaceful but it's lonesome
C F G C
It makes wonder how the old folks are at home
(CHORUS)
C F G C
Now the years have blown by me like the wind through the pines
C F C G C
But the song of the south is ever sweet as homemade wine
C F G Am
Oh how I miss those mountains when the Laurels are in bloom
F C G C
N' the southern stars are dancin' 'round North Carolina moon
C F G C
Just road through Memphis I could hear them guitar's playing
C F G C
They had the blues so bad it almost broke my heart
C F G C
Don't sound nothing like a band of tree frogs singing
C F G C
Every now and then they'd get in tune with grandpa's harp
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(INSTRUMENTAL)
C G C
When I die boys make me this promise
C F G C
You'll send my body back up North Carolina way
C F G C
I don't want no tombstone just lay me next to mama
C F G C
And let the honeysuckle grow wild upon my grave
(REPEAT CHORUS)
