Cumberland Mountain Deer Race
Away and away we're bound for the mountain
bound for the mountain, bound for the mountain
Over the mountain,
the wild steed's a-bounding, away to the chase, away, away
We'll heed not the cold,
the tempest not the danger, for over the mountains goes the ranger
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him,
see him Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, listen to the hound bells,
sweetly ringing, Over the mountain, the wild deer springing
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
See there the wild deer, trembling,
panting, trembling panting, trembling panting
One moment pausing, no longer standing, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him, see him,
Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Now we're set just right for the race,
With the hounds and the horses right in the chase
The deer is a-bounding, the hounds are sounding,
Right on the trail that leads o'er the mountain
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, listen to the hound bells, heavy bay, sounding tide over the way
All night long till the break of dawn, merrily the chase goes on
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him, see him,
Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
bound for the mountain, bound for the mountain
Over the mountain,
the wild steed's a-bounding, away to the chase, away, away
We'll heed not the cold,
the tempest not the danger, for over the mountains goes the ranger
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him,
see him Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, listen to the hound bells,
sweetly ringing, Over the mountain, the wild deer springing
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
See there the wild deer, trembling,
panting, trembling panting, trembling panting
One moment pausing, no longer standing, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him, see him,
Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Now we're set just right for the race,
With the hounds and the horses right in the chase
The deer is a-bounding, the hounds are sounding,
Right on the trail that leads o'er the mountain
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, listen to the hound bells, heavy bay, sounding tide over the way
All night long till the break of dawn, merrily the chase goes on
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
Oh, Rover, Rover, see him, see him,
Rover, Rover it's catch him, catch him
Over the mountain, the hills,
and the fountain, away to the chase, away, away
