I Like Mountain Music - Roy Acuff

To the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee

Came a hula girl from over the sea

With sparkling eyes lips so red

She looked at me and then she said

I like mountain music good old mountain music

Played by a real hillbilly band

Give me rural rhythm

Let me sway right with 'em

I think the melodies are grand

I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki

But I must say you can't beat

Turkey in the straw by cracky

I like mountain music good old mountain music

Played by a real hillbilly band

Her flashy clothes are really neat

Flowing hair and dancing feet

When she does the hula she can drive you wild

Swingin' and swayin' in the mountain style

While the fiddles play and the guitars ring

The people laugh you can hear them sing

This hula girl can swing and sway

You can hear her shout to the break of day

I like mountain music good old mountain music

Played by a real hillbilly band

Give me rural rhythm

Let me sway right with 'em

I think the melodies are grand

I have heard Hawaiians play in the land of the wicki-wacki

But I must say you can't beat

Turkey in the straw by cracky

I like mountain music good old mountain music

Played by a real hillbilly band
