A Carter Family Song D

Take me back to the hills of Virginia
I have rambled this cruel world too long
Let me rest in the shadow of Clinch Mountain
Bathe my soul in a Carter family song

---

Sing me a Carter Family song
Take me back to the way life used to be
Sing me a Carter Family song
Sing in honor of Maybelle, Sara and A.P.

---

If a mortal could make such a journey
I would go if for only one hour
Travel thru time back to Bristol
Then they picked the first Wildwood Flower

It is known that the simple songs of living
Told in truth never will be told wrong
Nothing lives in the heart of the people
Like the love of a Carter Family song
