Just you and me and a little white pup
Sittin' here waiting for the sun to come up
To keep the chill away
Drinkin' our coffee at the first crack of dawn
Watchin' a doe while she nuzzles her fawn
It's my favorite time of the day
Chorus:
High lonesome
God don't ever let this mountain change
High lonesome
I hope you will always stay the same
Sometimes in the evening when everything's still
Sweet mountain music floats over the hill
On a laurel-scented breeze
Sometimes when nightbirds are scolding the mist
I think i might know where heaven is
It's just above the trees
Repeat chorus
Watchin' my summertimes turnin' to falls
Seein' my song growing honest and tall
Keeps me satisfied
If i live forever or i die today
All i would ask is you just let me lay
Here on this mountainside
Repeat chorus
