Mountain Home - The Ranchhands

Oh mountain home, the

lord shines upon you

And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light

Where the razorbacks run free through the bloomin'

dogwood trees

And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night

Granddaddy came from

the Tennessee hills

With the clothes on his back and a five dollar bill,

oh oh Mountain Home

Lookin' for a better life west of the river

Got a job in the mine just to get through the winter,

oh oh Mountain Home

And when that five o’clock whistle blew

The boys in the hills all knew it was time to drink homebrew on the front porch

And pick Ozark Mountain tunes singin'

Oh mountain home, the lord shines upon you

And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light

Where the razorbacks run

free through the bloomin'

dogwood trees

And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night

Shotgun house with a

hard dirt floor

Saved his money bought

the land next door,

oh oh Mountain Home

Planted his seeds where the rich dirt lay

Then he prayed to the lord for the sun and the rain,

oh oh Mountain Home

And then when the

cotton plants grew

The boys in the fields all knew it was time to drink homebrew on the front porch

And pick Ozark Mountain

tunes singin'

Oh mountain home, the lord shines upon you

And your rugged peaks glow from heavens light

Where the razorbacks run free through the bloomin'

dogwood trees

And the coon skin hunters stalk their prey at night
