Find me way out in the mountains In some golden apple grove Bring your friends, bring your lover Strike a tune like this one goes Find me way out in the mountains Pickin’ by some lonesome stream We’ll light the fire, start the cider Stoke those old and ancient dreams Find me way out in the mountains Hollerin old forgotten ways Come with me we’ll dance all night Til the sun comes up for another day Find me way out in the mountains Cover your tracks, don’t tell a soul Them fancy folks won’t understand They’ll burn my woods and take my home I’ve seen it before, I’ll see it again A cycle that will never end
