From the great Atlantic ocean to the wide Pacific shore. From the queen of flowing mountains to the south bells by the moor. She's mighty tall and handsome and known quite well by all.
I have climbed so many mountains. Just to reach the other side. I near drowned myself in freedom. Just to feed my foolish pride. On my journey through the darkness.
If I was a preacher, I tell you what I would do,. I'd keep on preachin' and I'd work on the buildin' too. . I'm workin' on a building'. I'm workin' on a building'.
See that train coming round the bend. Carrying the one that I love. Her beautiful body is still here on earth. But her soul has been called up above. .
Now will you love me, little darling. When I'm in some other land?. And you know, I can't be with you. Or will you be loving another man?. . Will you be loving another man?.
In this awful world of sorrow. In this wicked path of sin. Never thinking of tomorrow. Or what I'd lose in the end. . Oh, I can hear the joy bells ringing.
Oh, why, oh why did you wander?. Oh, 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.
McKinley hollered, McKinley squalled. Doc said, "McKinley I can't find the cause. You're bound to die, you're bound to die". . Doc told the horse, he'd throw down his rein.
I left the one that love in the mountains. And all the love we shared. But each night as she kneels by her bed side. I know she calls my name in her prayer.
The cattle prowled and the coyotes howled. Out on the Great Divide. I never done no wrong, just singing a song. As down the trail I ride. The rattlesnakes rattle at the prairie dogs.
When The Bees Are In The Hive - Bill Monroe. (Bryan/Mills). . By the mill stream sits the Miller's pretty daughter. Her cheeks are like the first red rose of June.
Memories that linger in my heart. Memories that make my heart grow cold. Maybe we can live again, sweetheart. And my blue moon again will turn to gold.
Brother afar from The Savior today. Risking your soul for the things that decay. Oh if today God should call you away. What would you give in exchange for your soul.

Were you there when they crucified my Lord?. Were you there when they crucified my Lord?. Oh. . Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they crucified my Lord?.
Darling you often said you loved me. But you've gone on before. You don't know dear how I miss you. But we can't be darlings anymore. . Darling I am sad and lonely.
The wind is blowing 'cross the mountains. And out on the valley way below. It sweeps the grave of my darling. When I die that's where I want to go. . Lord, send the angels for my darling.
I want to be ready. I want to be ready. I want to be ready, Lord. To walk into Jerusalem, just like John. . I want to be ready. I want to be ready. I want to be ready, Lord.
You say you're sorry once again dear. You want me to take you back once more. You say you need a helping hand dear. But that's what you told me once before.
