Foggy Mountain Top Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

If I was on some foggy mountain top 

I'd sail away to the west 

I'd sail around this whole wide world 

To the boy I love the best 

If I had listened to what my mama said 

I would not have been here today 

Oh, wishin' for things that I'll never have 

And weepin' my young love away 

He taught me to weep, he taught me to moan 

He taught me to leave my home 

That lonesome town and those good old times 

I'm on my way back home 

If I was on some foggy mountain top 

I'd sail away to the west 

I'd sail around this whole wide world 

To the boy I love the best 

Now when you see that other blond 

There's something you can tell her 

She need not fool her time away 

Tryin' to steal my feller 

Now when you come upon me 

Put on your navy blue 

That long tail [Incomprehensible] 

Don't blew a thing for you 

If I was on some foggy mountain top 

I'd sail away to the west 

I'd sail around this whole wide world 

To the boy I love the best
