My Home's Across the Blue Ridge Mountains

Chorus
My home's across the Blue Ridge Mountains
My home's across the Blue Ridge Mountains
My home's across the Blue Ridge Mountains
And I never expect to see you any more

How can I keep from crying,... (x3)
When I never expect to see you anymore

Goodbye my honey, sugar darling,... (x3)
And I never expect to see you anymore

Rock my baby, feed her candy,... (x3)
And I never expect to see you anymore

I'm leavin' on a Monday morning,... (x3)
And I never expect to see you anymore

I'm goin' back to North Carolina,... (x3)
And I never expect to see you anymore

Where's that silver ring I gave you,... (x3)
Oh I never expect to see you anymore
