Skeeter Davis

Foggy Mountain Top

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
