1. Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
I wanna go home again
To see my mountain friends
Spring time opens up my heart
Makes me want to share
The good old mountain air
Life's so young and free for all
For those who answered the Blue Ridge Mountain call
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
I wanna go home again
To see my mountain friends

2. Sunrise breaks the morning dew
Walkin' on new plowed ground
A distant cow bell sound
Tall trees reach the misty blue
And all of their leaves are green
Shadows on the mountain stream
Dogwood and mountain laurel bloom
Welcome mat for nature's living room
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
I wanna go home again
To see my mountain friends

3. Night time gathers in the crowd
Listen to the children sing
Hear the banjos ring
Blue Ridge Mountains music sound
Comes from a lonely hill
Listen to the whippoorwill
Old-time fiddles that I hear
Playing a tune that I love so dear
Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
I wanna go home again
To see my mountain friends

Blue Ridge Mountains turning green
