lyrics
BLUE RIDGE BLUE words & music Mardell McCombs © Talking Rock Publishing
I'm feeling Blue Ridge blue
I've got to get back home again
Miss my family, left behind some real good friends
You know that city life, ain't all that it's cracked up to be
I've got to go back home
I hear those mountains calling me
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
Friends here say why go back
There must be nothing there to do
And it's so quiet there doesn't that silence get to you
How can they understand a different world they'll never know
That peace and quiet are exactly why I need to go
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
Finally left the highway driving on that county road
Now it's woods and pasture, barns and cattle herds
That joy within my soul when I first see these hills again
I'll never put that feeling into words
I want a long cold drink
Of pure sweet water from the spring
I want to walk that ridge, breathe in the peace the mountains bring
Oh you can have your towns, I’ve found my place in the world
And I just thank the Lord
That I was born a mountain girl
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
I'm feeling Blue Ridge blue
I've got to get back home again
Miss my family, left behind some real good friends
You know that city life, ain't all that it's cracked up to be
I've got to go back home
I hear those mountains calling me
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
Friends here say why go back
There must be nothing there to do
And it's so quiet there doesn't that silence get to you
How can they understand a different world they'll never know
That peace and quiet are exactly why I need to go
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
Finally left the highway driving on that county road
Now it's woods and pasture, barns and cattle herds
That joy within my soul when I first see these hills again
I'll never put that feeling into words
I want a long cold drink
Of pure sweet water from the spring
I want to walk that ridge, breathe in the peace the mountains bring
Oh you can have your towns, I’ve found my place in the world
And I just thank the Lord
That I was born a mountain girl
My heart is in the Smoky Mountains
That is the place I long to be
No matter how far I may wander
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
The Blue Ridge is always home to me
