Dolly Parton - Appalachian Memories (Greatest Hits)
Dolly Parton - Appalachian Memories (Greatest Hits)
You oughta go north somebody told us
æ ?ause the air is filled with gold dust
And fortune falls like snow flakes in your hands
Now I donæ° recall you said it
But weæ lived so long on credit
And so we headed out to find our promised land
Just poor Appalachian farm folk
With nothing more than high hopes
We hitched our station wagon to a star
But our dreams all fell in on us
'Cause there was no land of promise
And itæ¯ a stuggle keepin?sight of who you are
Oh and these northern nights are dreary
And my southern heart is weary
I wonder how the old folks are back home
But Iæ£l keep leanin?on sweet Jesus
I know Heæ£l love and guide and lead us
Appalachian memories keep me strong
Ya know Iæ³e been thinkin?a whole lot lately
About whatæ¯ been and what awaits me
It takes all Iæ³e got to give what life demands
You go insane if you give in to it
Lifeæ¯ a mill and Iæ³e been through it
Iæ¦ just thankful Iæ¦ creative with my hands
Oh and these northern nights are dreary
And my southern eyes are teary
Donæ° I wonder how the old folks are back home
But Iæ£l keep leanin?on my Jesus
I know heæ£l love and guide and lead us
Appalachian memories keep me strong
Iæ£l keep lookin?to the Father
Keep our heads above the water
Appalachian memories keep me strong
Dolly Parton - Appalachian Memories (04:15)
I searched for this song on youtube but didn´t find it, so I thought I load it up myself. This song
is probably better known as 'Smoky Mountain Memories' but this is the original version and I think
it´s just as beautiful. Hope you enjoy it. Dolly Parton: Appalachian Memories No copyright

Thank you for posting this song. I prefer this song as it is Dolly's original composition, and the word Appalachian rolls off the tongue smoother than Smoky Mountain - in my opinion. Either way - a real, live genius!!!!! Dolly - you're amazing and severely underrated.
