Key: D major
Verse 1
D
G
Watch the use of talkin'
when it's fun to go a -walkin'
With the birds and bees
Just to be a rover
where the brooks are bubbling over
And the mountainsides are
Watch the use of moping
when it's good to be a -hopin'
That you'll find your honey
When I see my Sally wave her
apron in the valley
I go jumpin' through the bushes
Livin' on the mountaintop,
high up on the mountaintop
She won't climb the mountaintop
for my old man don't like her pop,
I meet her on the mountainside
and hope someday that she'll decide
We won't live on the mountaintop,
nor in the valley with her pop,
G
D
G
but in a little shanty in the holler.
Slippin' round a courtin'
is a game that's really sportin'
When you know your folk
Ain't it tantalizin'
when you stand there realizin'
That her pappy may be
Every time I meet her
she gets just a little sweeter
And my love for her each
I'm a -gettin' bolder,
and if she don't let me hold her,
I'm afraid that I can't
I love somebody way down
She won't climb the mountaintop,
for my old man don't like her pop,
We won't live on the mountaintop,
nor in the valley with her pop,
G
D
G
but in a little shanty in the holler.
