I climbed up to the ridge line
To watch the shadows fall (oh-oh) Now I'm staring down the valley
Listening to the wind call
Oh, the blue ridge keeps on rolling Underneath the southern sky (hummmm)
And the home fires keep on burning As the cold wind passes
by
There's a whisper in the timber
A song I used to know (ahhh)
And it guides my heavy footsteps
Back to where the waters flow
Where the waters flow (mhmmm)
