Marcus King - Carry Me Home Lyrics

Marcus King Lyrics

"Carry Me Home"

Never such a melody
The hymns from way back home
The trees they sing
A siren song
For all of those that roam

River flow beneath my feet
Where all has she been?
Any man to know her peace
Can find his way again

Never been to heaven
Appalachia have I seen
In my time of dying
Bury me beneath her trees

Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home, Carolina

Mountain beckon to me
Moonlight guide my trail
Deliver me from sin
Save my soul from hell

Oh, my darling Blueridge sky
Shouting all my love
My bride she lay beside me
The moonlight hang above

Never been to heaven
Appalachia have I seen
In my time of dying
Bury me beneath her trees

Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home, Carolina
Lay me down
Lay me down slow
Lay me down slow, Carolina

Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home, Carolina
Lay me down
Lay me down slow
Lay me down slow, Carolina

Carry me
Carry me home
Carry me home, Carolina
