Ricky Skaggs - Why Did You Wander lyrics

Oh why, oh why did you wander? Oh, why did you ever roam? When you knew that we always were happy All alone in our old mountain home It was down in the old Cumberland Mountains Down in the hills of Tennessee As she waited alone in the moonlight It was there that she waited for me Oh why, oh why did you wander? Oh, why did you ever roam? When you knew that we always were happy All alone in our old mountain home Oh, why did you leave me little darling? Why did you leave me alone? For you knew I'd be lonely without you All alone in our old mountain home Oh why, oh why did you wander? Oh, why did you ever roam? When you knew that we always were happy All alone in our old mountain home Now I hope you will always be happy No matter where you may roam And I hope to be with you up in Heaven As we were in our old mountain home Oh why, oh why did you wander? Oh, why did you ever roam? When you knew that we always were happy All alone in our old mountain home Oh why, oh why did you wander? Oh, why did you ever roam? When you knew that we always were happy All alone in our old mountain home
