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
Why down in the old Cumberland Mountains
Down in the hills of Tennessee
There she waited alone in the moonlight
There's she's waiting for me
* Refrain
Oh, why did you leave me little darling
Why did you leave me alone
When you knew I'd be lonesome without you
All alone in our old mountain home
* Refrain
I hope that you'll always be happy
It don't matter wherever you roam
And I long to be with you up in heaven
As we were in our old mountain home
* Refrain
