Frank Proffitt - Essential Folk Masters

Going Across the Mountain

Goin' across the mountain, oh fair ye well
Goin' across the mountain, you can hear my banjo tell

Got my rations on my back, my powder it is dry
I'm going to cross the mountain, Crissy don't you cry

Goin' 'cross the mountain, to join the boys in blue
When this war is over I'll come back to you

Goin' 'cross the mountain, if I have to crawl
To give old Jeff's man a little of my rifle ball

Way before it's good daylight if nothing happens to me
I'll be way down yonder in old Tennesse

I 'spect you'll miss me when I'm gone, but I'm going through
When this fightin's over
Goin' across the mountain, oh fair ye well
Goin' across the mountain, oh fair ye well
