Charles Wesley Godwin - Over Yonder Lyrics

Charles Wesley Godwin Lyrics

"Over Yonder"

I'm Allegheny high
Leanin' back into my ride
I'm goin' 'cross the great divide
Headed over yonder
A trail of tears lies behind
Lonesome whistle keepin' time
From a train you'll never find
Headed over yonder

Things got wicked when she cried
Long brown hair and dark green eyes
No jewel could satisy
Headed over yonder
The corn was low, the timber wide
Always trying to provide
Now where do I reside?
Headed over yonder

Comfort in a loaded gun
Beauty in a settin' sun
I'm tired but just begun
Headed over yonder
Roll through meadows of my kin
Sittin' next to man's best friend
Comin' up around the bend
Headed over yonder

They say I'm born again
Simple 'sorry' and 'amen'
I'm livin' dyin' by the pen
Headed over yonder
I'm Allegheny high
Leanin' back into my ride
I'm goin' 'cross the great divide
Headed over yonder
