Foggy Mountain Top Lyrics & Chords By The Carter Family

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 mother said
I would not have been hee today
A-wishin for things I'll never have
And whittlin my young life away He tought me to weep he tought me to mourn
He tought me to leave my home
That lonesome town and those good old times
I'm on my way back home Now when you see that other blonde
There's something you can tell her
She need not blue her time away
Trying to steal my feller Now when you come a-courting me
Put on your navy blue
That long-tailed roustabout you wear
Don't do a thing for you
