Lyrics Sheb Wooley

Sheb Wooley

High Lonesome

The fur trader's endless quest

Brought him to the peaks of the great Northwest

And he called the mountains High Lonesome

I hear the old High Lonesome callin' me callin' me

There on the old High Lonesome I'll be free I'll be free

To live my life the way I choose

The land they call High Lonesome mountains high as the sky

Sometimes it's oh so lonesome I could die I could die

But there alone my soul's my own

I hear you old high lonesome callin' me callin' me

Oh I hear you old high lonesome callin' me callin' me
