Where The Mountain Lilies Grow

VERSE 1:
Over in the old dominion
Back in the hills off Rockhouse Road
That is where my darlin’ came from
Where the mountain lilies grow

VERSE 2:
Wilder than those mountain flowers
Sweeter than a honeycomb
Stole my heart down by the river
Where the mountain lilies grow

CHORUS:
Love has a name that it goes by
And for me it’s Ella Rose
Love has a place it lives forever
Where the mountain lilies grow

VERSE 3:
Oh so beautiful and caring
Heart of gold gentle but strong
Played the guitar while she was singing
An old lonesome mountain song

VERSE 4:
She loved her husband and her babies
Loved her dear old bad ridge home
Now she’s forever with the angels
Where the mountain lilies grow

Repeat chorus:
