Video #1: Here is a video of me playing and singing the country song "Smoky Mountain Memories."
Smoky Mountain Memories Intro Smokey Mountain memories about my home in Tennessee. Yesterday keeps calling me; calling me home. Mountains rising in my soul higher than the dreams I've known. Empty eyes they cling to me; my Smokey Mountain memories. An old gray man with a dog asleep at his feet Plays a worn out fiddle full of melodies. He smiles with his eyes but the lines on his face Told me as much as the tunes he played. Talking bout Smokey mountain memories pretty girl in Tennessee I was such a fool to leave leave her all alone Think about her in my dreams I wonder if she thinks of me I always hold her close to me in my Smokey Mountain memories Intro So mister play your fiddle please. Play some mountain memories. I've been down a lonely road so far from home. Nothing left to hold onto. I made some plans but they fell through. Now there's nothing left for me but my Smokey Mountain memories. Fiddle Break or repeat first verse
