Thread Name: Lyr Req: Nancy Brown / Rolling Down the Mountain
Subject: Lyr Add: NANCY BROWN
I'm not sure just how the tune goes, but try this!
Nancy Brown (5th Fret)
D G In the hills of W. Virginia There's a gal named Nancy Brown D A7 She was the fairest maiden in city or in town
D G Now Nancy and the Deacon climbed the mountainside one noon D A7 they climbed up to the summit but very very soon D G She came rollin' down the Mountain, rollin' down the mountain D A7 Rollin' down the mountain mighty wide D G No, she didn't give the Deacon not a thing that he was seekin' D A7 D She remained just as pure as the West Virginia sky.
Then there came that ol' cowboy came a cowboy with his song took Nancy up the mountain but she still knew right from wrong She came rollin' down the Mountain rollin' down the mountain Rollin' down the mountain by the Dam and despite that cowboys urgin' she remained the village virgin she remained just as pure as the West Virginia sand
Then there came that Old trapper with his words so soft and kind took Nancy up the mountain but when she read his mind She came rollin' down the Mountain rollin' down the mountain Rollin' down the mountain by the shack She remained as I have stated not the least con-tam-in-ated she remained just as pure as Satin's apple jack
Then there came a city slicker with a hundred dollar bill took Nancy and his Packard way up on the hill Oh, she stayed up on that mountain stayed up on that mountain she stayed up on that mountain all that night She came down next morning early more a woman than a girly and her pappy kicked that hussy out of sight
And now she's livin' in the city, she's living in the city livin' in the city mighty swell Now her life's all beer and skiddles and she lives on fancy viddles and those West Virginia hills can go to hell.
