From a shack by a mountain stream To a room in New Orleans So far from my Blue Ridge mountain home The men I meet, ain't warm and friendly Like the one in old 'virginny Oh they ain't real, like my Blue Ridge mountain boy I was just a little past 18 When I came to New Orleans I'd never been beyond my home state line There was a boy who loved me dearly But I broke his heart severely When I left my Blue Ridge mountain boy Life was dull in my home town The lights were out when the sun went down And I thought the city life was more my style But nights get lonely away from home And its easy to go wrong The men ain't kind Like my Blue Ridge mountain boy New Orleans held things in store Things I'd never bargained for And every night a different man knocks on my door But late at night when all is still I can hear a whiporwill, as I cry, for my Blue Ridge mountain boy Oh but I can ever go back home Since the boy I love is gone He grew tired of waiting for me to return They say he married, last October But I never will get over Oh, the sweet love of my Blue Ridge mountain boy Blue Ridge Mountain Boy

I, I found life When I found You When I found You Now, now I'm trying To make it through To make it through Done with all of the lies I might not win But I'm gonna try All the times that I cried I know You were there Holding me tight Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh All of the days that I thought That I'd never get through Searching for answers All along it was You Sorry for all of the times That I ignored You I can't imagine a moment To be without You I, I found life When I found You When I found You Now, now I'm trying To make it through To make it through

Now, what do I do with this love I found? What do I put in the hole inside the ground? Oh, I'm falling higher Flying deeper Oh, the love I found What do I do with the smile trapped in my mouth? How do I prove there's a ghost this time around? It's like catching fire Walking on water Oh, the love I found Say the word and I'll burn it all Play the chord and I'll bleed some more We ain't getting younger Age's just a number, oh, oh, oh Maybe clouds won't break my fall Maybe it will be enough Time's getting older The light's getting closer, oh, oh, oh So what do I do with this love I saved for you? What do I move to the space I held for two? Can you taste the choir? Can you feel the whisper? Oh, the love I found Oh, the love I found
