Generate meaning
1
In the beautiful hills way back in Virginia
2
By the side of his home where he played as a lad
3
In a deep dark grave Carter lies sleeping
4
There lies the best friend that I ever had
5
For twenty one years he travelled this country
6
Entertaining his friends wherever he roamed
7
For many thousands he made life brighter
8
Now he is at rest near his old home
9
He wrote many songs about the Clinch Mountains
10
Of mother and dad his friends and home
11
Through 43 states and many foreign countries
12
Wherever he travelled his name was known
13
Now he's at rest in the family graveyard
14
On top of a hill where the wind blows o'er
15
He's gone on now but he won't be forgotten
16
The songs he left will never grow old
17
He laid down his guitar but he'll always be remembered
18
On earth for the last time he sung white dove
19
Forever in heaven Carter will be singing
20
Singing with the angels in heaven above
