Miscellaneous
Rocky Mountain Music (1976)
Back upon an old dirt road next to a swamp full of toads
Was a slanted wood shack with three little kids and a mama
Papa died in '63 left little jenny and me
To plant those taters and pull up another tomorrow

Rocky Mountain music fills my memory
Rocky mountain music Papa can I hear you playing for me

Little brother was never quite right he used to sit on the floor in the sunlight
Play with the dust that danced on the beams in the window
Sister had to cook and clean cause momma she got sick and lean
Sometimes I think she just got that way missing papa

Rocky Mountain music fills my memory
Rocky mountain music mama can I hear you singing to me

Well every thing has changed today little brother he was taken away
Sister, she married a soldier and lives in Toledo
And me I'm in a Nashville bar and I've never been so far
From that old gravel road and the rivers that run through my memory

Rocky Mountain music fills my memory
Rocky mountain music brother can I hear you calling me
