lyrics

Lyrics:

Come on down the mountain Bluford Abel
Come on down the mountain Whiskey Blue
Can’t you hear us callin, Bluford Abel?
We wanna drink that good ol’ mountain dew!

Bluford left his home up on the mountain
To join Virginia’s fightin Forty-Two
But shrapnel in the arm for Stonewall Jackson
Held nothin to that good ol’ mountain dew

Come on down the mountain Bluford Abel
Come on down the mountain Whiskey Blue
Can’t you hear us callin, Bluford Abel?
We wanna drink your good ol’ mountain dew!

He wore the ball & chain in Richmond city
When the war was lost, the gates was opened wide
He threw that ball & chain in ol’ Jim’s river
And lighted-out across the Great Divide

Come on down the mountain Bluford Abel
Come on down the mountain Whiskey Blue
Can’t you hear us callin Bluford Abel?
We wanna drink that good ol’ mountain dew!

He wrastled with a bear up on Clinch Mountain
He wrastled with the revenuers too
If you’re up by Abel’s Curve and feelin thirsty
Ol’ Whiskey Blue is bound to wrastle you!

Come on down the mountain Bluford Abel
Come on down the mountain Whiskey Blue
Can’t you hear us callin Bluford Abel?
We wanna drink that good ol’ mountain dew!
