Blue Blue Ridge Mountain Girl (single)

Momma barely eighteen when she stepped down from the bus
Looking for a place to make a start
Holding me in her arms and a bag of all she owned
With a heart filled with those she left behind

Now she’s a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl
Living between two worlds
Memories of home in a city cold as stone
She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

Even though she’d brought them shame she could have stayed around
Making it hard for those she loves
Walking off that mountain not knowing what she’d find
Praying we could make it on our own

She’s still a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl
Living between two worlds
Memories of home in a city cold as stone
She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

When I asked about my daddy she would only say
He was a boy not ready to be a man
I never had to miss him to tell the honest truth
Momma had love enough for two

She’s still a blue Blue Ridge mountain girl
Living between two worlds
Memories of home in a city cold as stone
She’s a Blue Ridge blue mountain girl

Yes she’s a Blue ridge blue mountain girl
