Hills and Hollers Adrienne Young / Mark D. Sanders Well I feel like a stranger in my own hometown There's traffic in the air where there used to be the sound Of tall trees growin' and kids runnin' wild Or maybe I was lookin' through the eyes of a child But I swear There used to be Hills and hollers here Wild turkey and the white tailed deer Creeks runnin' crystal clear Water on its way to the Gulf of Mexico Moonshine on the mountaintop Daddy sawin' fiddle like he never gonna stop Lord, if these hills could talk They'd say sing me a song that goes Oh, mama leave the light on Oh, shine like the sun on the shadows of history They laid the first paved road back in '45 Now you gotta have wheels if you're gonna survive Black top over gravel Gravel over mud Seems the oil in our veins runs thicker than the blood But I swear There used to be Hills and hollers here Wild turkey and the white tailed deer Creeks runnin' crystal clear Water on its way to the Gulf of Mexico Moonshine on the mountaintop Daddy sawin' fiddle like he never gonna stop Lord, if these hills could talk They'd say sing me a song that goes Oh, mama leave the light on Oh, shine like the sun on the shadows of history
