Lyrics

[female

vocals] (

Gentle

acoustic

guitar

picking,

a

soft

sigh

of

a

pedal

steel)

There

was

a

little

girl

in

Tennessee

With

a

secondhand

guitar

and

a

heart

full

of

dreams

She

sang

through

the

poverty,

sang

through

the

pain

And

turned

every

tear

into

a

beautiful

refrain

She

came

from

a

cabin

where

the

nights

were

cold

But

she

carried

a

fire

that

could

never

grow

old

And

somehow

that

girl

with

the

mountain

in

her

soul

Found

a

way

to

make

the

whole

wide

world

feel

whole

She

gave

us

laughter

when

the

world

was

hurting

Gave

us

courage

when

the

road

was

hard

And

every

time

she

opened

up

her

heart

We

felt

like

we

were

back

in

her

own

backyard

Oh,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

And

you’

re

dancing

in

the

shadows

of

the

Smoky

range

We’

ll

be

listening

for

the

echo

of

your

silver

tone

Finding

our

way

back

to

the

love

you’

ve

shown

Yeah,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

We

know

you’

re

finally

heading

back

home

She

painted

pictures

with

a

rhinestoned

pen

About

the

working

girl

and

the

working

men

She

taught

us

that

beauty

is

a

spirit

inside

Something

that

time

and

the

years

cannot

hide

From

Jolene’

s

sorrow

to

the

Coat

of

Many

Colors

She

stood

as

a

witness

for

all

of

her

brothers

And

sisters

in

spirit,

who

looked

to

the

light

And

found

in

her

songs

a

way

to

make

it

right

Oh,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

And

you’

re

dancing

in

the

shadows

of

the

Smoky

range

We’

ll

be

listening

for

the

echo

of

your

silver

tone

Finding

our

way

back

to

the

love

you’

ve

shown

Yeah,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

We

know

you’

re

finally

heading

back

home

Time

rolls

on

like

the

Pigeon

River

flow

And

even

the

strongest

timber

eventually

goes

But

the

words

she

whispered

and

the

songs

she

sang

Are

carved

in

the

limestone

where

the

wild

bells

rang (

Melancholic,

slow-paced

fiddle

and

acoustic

guitar

weave)

Oh,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

And

you’

re

dancing

in

the

shadows

of

the

Smoky

range

We’

ll

be

listening

for

the

echo

of

your

silver

tone

Finding

our

way

back

to

the

love

you’

ve

shown

Yeah,

when

the

mountains

call

your

name

We

know

you’

re

finally

heading

back

home

Heading

back

home

to

the

ridge

To

the

mist

and

the

morning

sun

Rest

now,

darling,

the

journey

is

done

When

the

mountains

call

your

name

Just

follow

the

sound...

Follow

the

sound... (

Fade

out

with

soft,

single

acoustic

notes)
