Bear Creek Blues (Carter Family) 
Way up on Bear Creek, watching the sun go down Way up on Bear Creek, watching the sun go down It makes me feel like I'm on my last go-'round, 
The water on Bear Creek, it tastes like cherry wine The water on Bear Creek, it tastes like cherry wine You take one drink of it, you're drinking it all the time 
If you stay on Bear Creek, you'll get like Jesse James If you stay on Bear Creek, you'll get like Jesse James You'll take two old pistols
 and hold up that Bear Creek train 
I'm going high, high up on some lonesome hill I'm going high, high up on some lonesome hill Look down on Bear Creek where my good gal used to live
