Blue Ridge Mountains Turnin’ Green
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
Wanna go home again to
See my mountain friends
Springtime opens up my heart
Makes me want to share that
Good old mountain air
Life's so young and free for all
For those who answer the
Blue Ridge Mountain call
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
I wanna go home again to
See my mountain friends
Sun-rise drinks the morning dew
Walking on new plowed ground
Distant cowbells sound
Tall trees reach the misty blue
All their leaves are green the
Shadows on a mountain stream
Dogwood and mountain laurel bloom
A welcome mat for nature's living room
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
Wanna go home again to
See my mountain friends
Night-time gathers in the crowd
Listen to the children sing
Hear the banjos ring
Blue Ridge Mountain music sound
Comes from lonely hill the
Song of a whippoorwill
Old time fiddles that I hear
Playing the tune that I love so dear
Blue Ridge Mountains calling me
I wanna go home again to
See my mountain friends
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
