Carry Me Back To The Bluegrass

Well the week is gone good people
And friday's here at last
I'm going to take my old banjo
Play me a little bluegrass

I'm going were the mountains are higher
And the bluegrass is all around
Play me a song for my true true love
Listen to that mournful sound

Carry me back to the bluegrass
        That's where I long to be
        I'm going to take my weary soul
        And head down to Torny creek

I long long to see the old folks
I long to see my home
I long to hear from my true true love
And have her all alone

I've got a girl she lives down yonder
In a little place called buffalo
As soon as I get back to her
That's where I want to go

* Refrain
