Lyrics

Little Yellow Leaf


VERSE 1
Take me back to North Carolina where the rivers run and the butterflies play
Sweet the smell a bed of wild mountain flowers - that's where I want to rest come -


CHORUS 1
judgment day - Oh see that little yellow leaf that's falling -
I do believe something over me is calling
wood set to ramble steel stretched to roam - I'm singing that train as far as she'll go
little yellow leaf has got me thinking about home and getting back to my
baby


VERSE 2
The cotton clouds are catching in the branches - the trees are found a pillow for their bed
this sleepy little town is closing up for dreaming - counting their blessings and -


CHORUS 2
bowing their heads - Oh see that little yellow leaf that's falling -
I do believe something over me is calling
wood set to ramble steel stretched to roam - I'm singing that train as far as she'll go
little yellow leaf has got me thinking about home and getting back to my
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaby


BRIDGE
The road winds through the ash and the pines while waiting for the box of the burn
Get in line boy there are gears to be grinding - while they’re picking out the timber for your turn
Oh yeah


CHORUS 3 - after bridge
Oh see that little yellow leaf that's falling -
I do believe something over me is calling
wood set to ramble steel stretched to roam - I'm singing that train as far as she'll go
little yellow leaf has got me thinking about home and getting back to my baby
