OVER THE MOUNTAINS [2]. American, Reel (2/4 time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. Away down in de Kentuck brake
De darkey lib, dey call him jake,
he pick upon de banmjo string,
Dis am de song dat he would sing.
Ree-ro my true lub,
O come along my darlin,
So fare you well, my Dinah gal,
I'm gwine ober de mountains.
Come my lub an go wid me,
I'm gwine away to Tennessee;
A hoss an cart dhall pull you roun,
Walk up hill an foot it down.
