Subject: RE: Lyr Req: The Trail of the Lonesome Pine
My mother sang this song to us when we were little but her words were slightly different:

In the blue ridge mountains of Virginia
Stood a cow on a railroad track.
She was a good old cow with a heart so fine
But you can't expect a cow to read a railroad sign

She stopped!

Cha Cha Cha

In the middle of the track!

And a train!

Cha Cha Cha

Hit her right in the back!

In the blue ridge mountains of Virginia
They found her tail on her lonesome spine...
Her head was squashed!

lol
I miss my mom!
