I was riding tonight in the high cold wind On the trail of that old lonesome pine I was thinkin' of you feelin' so blue Wonderin' why I left you behind Get down boys go back home Back to the girl you love Treat her right never wrong How mountain girls can love Remember the night we strolled down the lane Our hearts were gay an' happy then You whispered to me while I held you close We hoped that night would never end Get down boys go back home Back to the girl you love Treat her right never wrong How mountain girls can love Yes, how mountain girls can love
