Across The Rocky Mountains

Across The Rocky Mountains - Ricky Skaggs

Across the rocky mountain I walked for miles and miles

I'll ne'er forget my mother, God bless her sweetly smile

There was a rich old farmer who lived in a town nearby

He had one lovely daughter, on her I cast my eye

She was most tall and handsome, blue eyes and curly hair

There's no other girl in this world with her I could compare

She was courted by three squires, so well they did agree

She's courted by three squires, so well they did agree

But her heart with with the sailor who crossed the deep blue sea

Well your cheeks they are too rosy, your fingers are too small

Your cheeks they are too rosy, your fingers are too small

Oh, your cheeks they are too rosy to face cannonballthe

No, my cheeks are not too rosy, nor fingers aren't too small

My cheeks are not too rosy, nor fingers aren't too small

It would not change my conscience to see ten thousand fall

She was walking through the battlefield, searching up and down

She's walking through the battlefield, searching up and down

All among the dead and wounded, her darling Jack she found
