I wonder if I’d get lonesome fer the valley though
Fer the sound of crickets
and the smell of pine straw
Fer soft little rabbits
and bloomin’ things
An’ the mountains turnin’ gold in the fall

But I could always come back
If I got homesick fer the valley
So I’ll leave it someday
and see fer myself
Someday I’ll leave
an’ then I’ll come back
When I’ve seen
what’s beyond them mountains

I wonder what it’s like out there
Out there way beyond them mountains
Where the folks talk nice an’ the folks dress nice
Like ya see in the mail order catalogs

I aim to leave this valley some day
An’ find out for myself:
To see all them tall buildin’s and all the street lights
An’ to be one o’them folks myself
