Mountain Lady lyrics

by

Johnny Cash


[Verse 1]
Mountain lady
Do you sit on your front porch in the cool of the day?
Mountain lady
Did you think your kids would ever come back to stay?
Mountain lady
Does the columbine still twine around your door?
And did you ever get a rug to cover the cracks
Where my diaper drug on your wooden floor?

[Chorus]
Oh, you Appalachian lady, once I was your little baby
And you rocked me in your homemade rocking chair
Since I heard the wild goose calling, I have done a lot of falling
Mountain lady, someday I’ll come to you there

[Verse 2]
Mountain lady
Does the country-church bell ring on Sunday morn?
Mountain lady
Do you still wear that old apron, ragged and torn?
Mountain lady
On winter nights, before our old fireplace
As you look into the flame
Do you ever call my name and do you see my face?
[Chorus]
Oh, you Appalachian lady, once I was your little baby
And you rocked me in your homemade rocking chair
Since I heard the wild goose calling, I have done a lot of falling
Mountain lady, someday I’ll come to you there
Mountain lady
