Roots - Malcolm Holcombe

maybe texas maybe jupiter

who’s to know when you’re lonely

reckon mem’ries good to suit her

puttin' roots down in the hills

roots down in the hills

there’s one heart in these ol mountains

there’s one light gently shinin'

in the blue ridge smoky sunrise

puttin' roots down in the hills

roots down in the hills

hold the silver moonlight passion

dancin' fast everlastin'

til the stars a glance may capture

puttin' roots down in the hills

roots down in the hills

some melody i must remember

in the crowded valley wind

her voice sings to the evenin'

puttin' roots down in the hills

roots down in the hills
