Bill Monroe - Why Did You Wander lyrics

rate me

Oh, why oh why did you wander

Why did you ever roam

When you know that we always were happy

All alone in our old mountain home

It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains

Down in the hills of Tennessee

As she waited alone in the moonlight

It was there that she waited for me

Oh why did you leave me little darling

Why did you leave me alone

For you knew I'd be lonely without you

All alone in our old mountain home

I hope you will always be happy

No matter where you may roam

And I long to be with you up in heaven

As we were in our old mountain home
