Lyrics

Sweet Rolling Meadows

Was a very sad day when mom & daddy died
I stood at their grave side, and oh how I cried
They’re in the church yard, among the fold
In Sweet Rolling Meadows, not far from home

Sweet Rolling Meadows, why did I roam
High on the ridge that I called home
In Newton County, on the County line
Sweet Rolling Meadows, sweet home of mine.

I left my mountain home long time ago
Why I left these hills, I’ll never know.
Now I’ll never leave this old home again
Sweet rolling meadows you’re my friend

Sweet Rolling Meadows, why did I roam
High on the ridge that I called home
In Newton County, on the County line
Sweet Rolling Meadows, sweet home of mine.
