Joseph Dejarnette - Goin' Across the Mountain lyrics

[Verse 1] Going across the mountain Oh, fare you well Going across the mountain Hear my banjo tell [Verse 2] Got my rations on my back My powder it is dry I'm going across the mountain Chrissie, don't you cry [Verse 3] Going across the mountain To join the boys in blue When the war is over I'll come back to you [Verse 4] I'm going across the mountain If I have to crawl I'll give old Jeff's men A little of my rifle ball [Verse 5] Way before it's good daylight If nothing happens to me I'll be way down yonder In old Tennessee [Verse 6] I expect you'll miss me when I'm gone But I'm going through When this war is over I'll come back to you [Verse 7] Going across the mountain Oh, fare you well Going across the mountain Oh, fare you well
