Lyrics
A Far Cry
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I remember the face of an angel,
A love that was faithful and true
I left that dear girl in the mountains,
For a ramblin' life empty and blue
Sweet roses bloom where they're planted,
Wild flowers seed on the wind
That valley was closer to heaven,
Than any place this poor fool's been
It's a far cry from here to Virginia
But I've crawled every inch of that ground
My teardrops fall like rain on the roof
Of that blueridge home where I'm bound
This old highway is a ribbon of lonesome,
I don't care where I lay my head down
Virginia has died broken-hearted,
My poor mountain darlin' is gone
It's a far cry from here to Virginia
But I've crawled every inch of that ground
My teardrops fall like rain on the roof
Of that blueridge home where I'm bound
Yeah, my teardrops fall like rain on the roof
Of that blueridge home where I'm bound
