Foggy Mountain Top
If I was on some foggy mountain top,
I'd sail away to the West
I'd sail all around this old wide world
To the boy I love the best.
If I had listened t'what Mama said,
I would not have been here today
Wishing for things I'll never have,
And weeping my sweet life away.
If I was on some foggy mountain top,
I'd sail away to the West
I'd sail all around this old wide world
To the boy I love the best.
You caused me to weep, you caused me to mourn,
You caused me to leave my home
Oh, those lonesome pines and those good old times,
I'm on my way back home.
If I was on some foggy mountain top,
I'd sail away to the West
I'd sail all around this old wide world
To the boy I love the best.
Oh, when you see that two-faced blonde,
There's somethin' you can tell 'er
She need not fool her time away,
A-tryin' to steal a feller.
If I was on some foggy mountain top,
I'd sail away to the West
I'd sail all around this old wide world
To the one I love the best.
Oh, when you come to court me
Put on your navy blue
That long tail ""roust-a-bout"" you wear,
Don't do a thing for you.
Well if I was on some foggy mountain top,
I'd sail away to the West
But I'd sail all around this old wide world
To the boy I love the best.
