Lyrics:
- High up in the Blue Ridge Mountains
- Still and lying on his back
- Our ancient host, Grandfather Mountain
- Many million years and counting
- Laying on his back, counting stars
- Up in the sky, above his head
- Eyes and nose of solid granite,
- They’re the oldest eyes upon the
- Planet, watching ages come and go
- A cloud comes by and sits his upon nose
- He blows it down the ancient valley
- Towards the busy town
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’?
- Tell me old man, how are you today
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’?
- Tell me old man how are you today
- Hey, hey, hey!
- Find a day and cross the
- Swinging bridge and climb his
- face and feel the grace the
- blowing breeze and shining sun
- While you’re here and have a minute,
- Take the view and glory in it
- Year by year floating by Grandfather Mountain
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’?
- Tell me old man, how are you today?
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’?
- Tell me old man, how are you today?
- Hey, hey, hey!
- Just watching the years fade away
- Just watching the years fade away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years fade away
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’
- Tell me old man, how are you today
- Tell me old man, what are you dreamin’
- Tell me old man, how are you today
- Hey, hey, hey!
- Just watching the years fade away
- Just watching the years fade away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years wash away
- Just watching the years fade away
