[1] Oh why oh why did you [4] wander
[1] Why did you ever [5] roam
When you [1] know that we always were [4] happy
All [1] alone in our [5] old mountain [1] home
It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains
Down in the hills of Tennessee
As she waited alone in the moonlight
It was there that she waited for me
Oh why did you leave me little darlin'
Why did you leave me alone
For you know I'd be lonely without you
All alone in our old mountain home
Now I hope you will always be happy
No matter where you may roam
And I hope to be with you up in heaven
As we were in our old mountain home
[1] Oh why oh why did you [4] wander
[1] Why did you ever [5] roam
When you [1] know that we always were [4] happy
All [1] alone in our [5] old mountain [1] home
It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains
Down in the hills of Tennessee
As she waited alone in the moonlight
It was there that she waited for me
Oh why did you leave me little darlin'
Why did you leave me alone
For you know I'd be lonely without you
All alone in our old mountain home
Now I hope you will always be happy
No matter where you may roam
And I hope to be with you up in heaven
As we were in our old mountain home
