Rocky River Home
I'm going back, can't wait for day
I'm headed south; I'm going to stay
In those green fields of Carolina
Take me back to my Rocky River home.
The sky was gray the day I left
I felt just like I left myself
In those green fields of Carolina
When I left my Rocky River home
Each night I pray right from the start
Please end this war, let me depart
For those green fields of Carolina
Take me back to my Rocky River home.
Old Stonewall said, Stand straight and tall
When cannons roar and if you fall
We'll send you back to your Carolina
There to rest in your Rocky River home
When Stonewall fell and Stuart too
The Second Corps was split in two
Take me back to my Carolina
Take me back to my Rocky River home
Our General Lee was brave and true
But in the end the world was Blue
Take me back to my Carolina
Take me back to my Rocky River home.
I'm going back, can't wait for day
I'm headed south; I'm going to stay
In those green fields of Carolina
There to rest in my Rocky River home.
