Swanno Mountain Lyrics

I'm going back to the Swanno Mountain
Lordy that's my home baby, that's my home

Got sixteen brackets on my banjo
Lord it rings like silver, baby, shines like gold

I got a letter from my woman
Lordy she's gone blind, baby, she can't see

I'm going back to the Swanno Mountain
Lordy that's my home baby, that's my home

I got a letter from my captain
Lordy he's in jail, baby, he's in jail

I'm going back to the Swanno Mountain
Lordy that's my home baby, that's my home
