Sourwood Mountain lyrics

[Intro]
One of the gayest and most danceable of the mountain fiddle tunes

[Verse 1]
Chicken a-crowing on Sourwood Mountain
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
So many pretty girls I can't count 'em
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day

[Verse 2]
My true love lives over the holler
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
She won't come and I won't foller
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day

[Verse 3]
Pack my jimmy up Sourwood Mountain
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
So many pretty girls I can't count 'em
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day

[Verse 4]
Oh man, oh man, I want your daughter
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
To break my bed and carry my water
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
[Verse 1]
Chicken a-crowing on Sourwood Mountain
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
So many pretty girls I can't count 'em
Hoe-deeing-di diddy-I-day
