Jim & Jesse - Stony Mountain, W. Va. lyrics

Artist: Jim & Jesse

album: In The Tradition


Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Is the place I long to be
Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Where my darlin' waits for me
I left my home one Sunday mornin'
I struck out for Tennessee
To sing my song, to make my fortune
And join the Grand Ole Opry
A man told me son you ain't got it
Go back home while there's still time
But I couldn't stand the thought of diggin'
In that ol' Stony Mountain mine
Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Is the place I long to be
Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Where my darlin' waits for me
I fell in with bad companion
From the bank in Memphis town
Headed south, scared and runnin'
They caught me in Birmingham
Jailor jailor, pen and paper
Write this letter for me please
To Stony Mountain, West Virginia
And make me just a memory
Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Is the place I long to be
Stony Mountain, West Virginia
Where my darlin' waits for me
