How can I keep from crying ?
How can I keep from crying ?
How can I keep from crying ?
For I never expect to see you anymore

   My home's across the blue ridge mountains
   My home's across the blue ridge mountains
   My home's across the blue ridge mountains
   And I never expect to see you anymore

Oh how I hate to leave you
Oh how I hate to leave you
Oh how I hate to leave you
For I never expect to see you anymore

So goodbye my little darling
So goodbye my little darling
So goodbye my little darling
I never expect to see you anymore
