Lyrics:

Sweet mountain river,
come take me away,
way out west of the prairies,
is where I'm gonna stay.


Sweet mountain river,
I'm gonna make you my home,
cause you fill me with that sweet sweet joy,
and I never want to leave you alone.

I haven't felt home in this city for so long.

Sweet mountain woman,
gonna take you with me,
I'm gonna give you everything you want,
and you're never gonna want to leave, no.

Sweet mountain woman,
I'm gonna show you my way,
I'm gonna see you at the break of dawn,
and I'm gonna see you when the light goes away.
