Mountain lady do you sit on your front porch in the cool of the day
G          D7          C                                       G
Mountain lady did you think your kids would ever come back to stay
G                       C                                 G
Mountain lady does the columbine still twine around your door
              D7                          C                                         G
And did you ever get a rug To cover the cracks where my diaper drug on your wooden floor

[Chorus]
G       C                       G               C
Oh you Appalachian lady once I was your little baby
         G                                  D7
And you rocked me in your homemade rocking chair
         C                                   G              C
Since I heard the wild goose calling I have done a lot of falling
          G            D7              G
Mountain lady someday I'll come to you there

Mountain lady does the country church bell ring on Sunday morn
           D7         C                                    G
Mountain lady do you still wear that old apron ragged and torn
G                 C                               G
Mountain lady on winter nights before our old fireplace
        D7                         C                                   G
As you look into the flame do you ever call my name and do you see my face

[Chorus]
G       C                       G               C
Oh you Appalachian lady once I was your little baby
         G                                  D7
And you rocked me in your homemade rocking chair

Since I heard the wild goose calling I have done a lot of falling
