I was wonderin' we'd play that old song Frank Profit wrote
Ol' civil war song
Goin' Across the Mountain
Goin' across the mountain, oh fare ye well
Goin' across the mountain, hear my banjo tell
Got my rations on my back, my powder, it is dry
I'm goin' across the mountain, Chrissy, don't you cry
I'm goin' across the mountain to join the boys in blue
When the war is over, I'll come back to you
Goin' across the mountain, if I have to crawl
I'll give ol' Jeff's men a little of my rifle ball
I expect you'll miss me when I'm gone, but I'm going through
When the war is over, I'll come back to you
Well, long before it's good daylight, if nothing happens to me
I'll be way down yonder, in ole Tennessee
Goin' across the mountain, oh fare ye well
Goin' across the mountain, hear me banjo tell
Goin' across the mountain, oh fare ye well
Goin' across the mountain, oh fare ye well
