Edwin McCain
See Off This Mountain
She's a Blue Ridge cradle
She's a mother to some
And home to the laughter Of road weary ones
So we'll sing all the old songs Sing to grandmama road And we'll sing cause we miss her
And we're sad she had to go If I could see off this mountain
Through the clouds in my eyes I would see off this mountain On the nights stars fell And see off this mountain Through the tears in my eyes I would see off this mountain
And the stars fell from the skies In the air I hear a fiddle Down along Hickory Way And the mandolin guitar
Like we used to play
And down on Dunn's rock
Brothers boasting a dare We tell them they're crazy
And pretend we don't care If I could see off this mountain
Through the clouds in my eyes SongtexteI would see off this mountain On the nights stars fell And see off this mountain
Through the tears in my eyes
I would see off this mountain And the stars fell from the skies The air tastes like moonshine In the wind a carnival tune It soars with our laughter
But we'll all leave too soon So I raise a toast to family Put thanks in my glass In the arms of your loved ones It's the only home that lasts If I could see off this mountain Through the clouds in my eyes I would see off this mountain On the night the stars fell And see off this mountain Through the tears in my eyes
I could see off this mountain When the stars fell from the skies
When the stars fell from the skies Going up to grandmama road Going up to grandmama road I'm happy as can be
'Cause can't you see
I'm going up to grandmama road
