Lyrics The Stanley Brothers

The Stanley Brothers

Carolina Mountain Home Carolina Mountain Home

I left my old home back in the mountains

G7

For many long years I roamed around

F C

I can hear that lonesome whistle blowing

G7 C

I'm going back there to settle down

F C

I love those Carolina mountains

G7

And the little girl I left behind

C F C

But I know I'll never forget her

G7 C

Oh how I long to make her mine

C F C

I looked out my window and wondered

G7

If everything there looks the same

C F C

I can see the blue eyes of my darling

G7 C

I'm going back there to change her name
