THE GRASCALS
"Sweet Little Mountain Girl"
(Ray Edwards / Sharlene Hazelwood)

Sweeter than a honey soaking blooming on the vine
You are as blue as the Jack Spring Blue time softer
Than a moon on the front porch swing fresh as
Morning dew on Summer fields of green

[Chorus:]
Strong as the raging river deep in life cometh Heaven is as
Sure the other side more precious that a diamond
Or the ocean's finest pearl that's the love of my
Sweet little mountain girl

Gentle as almonds from an old oak tree sure as an
Army frost chilled in Tennessee faithful as winter wind
Make the snowflake swirl nothing in the world
Compare to the love of a mountain girl strong as
The raging river deep in life cometh Heaven is as
Sure of the other side more precious that a diamond
Or the ocean's finest pearl that's the love of my
Sweet little mountain girl

[Chorus:]
Strong as the raging river deep in life cometh Heaven
Is as sure the other side more precious that a diamond
Or the ocean's finest pearl that's the love of my
Sweet little mountain gir
