Ozark Mountain Daredevils Lowlands
(GUITAR INTRO)
I heard a song that was taught to a baby
and it made the mountain sing
I knew a gift that was given to my lady
it was hidden in a dream
and there's a light in the lowlands
and a river that runs so clean
I'm a poor man feelin' lazy
and the lowlands are callin' my name
(hymnal-like chant)
I knew a man who said he was a stranger
'cause his heart he could not trust
I knew a man who could not face the dangers
even though he knew he must
and it's hard in the lowlands
and the grasses will turn to rust
but the sun is a fountain
flowing through the lowland's dust
