"Windy Mountain," title track to the album of the same name.

Oh, how I’d like to be upon a windy mountain
Where the tree tops scrape the sky
Then I would forget all my worries and my troubles
I’ll just let the wind blow them by

I how I love the sound of the wind when it’s howlin
For it blows my blues away
It makes me forget the girl that I’m lovin
Lets me forget until another day

Let me hear the leaves on the trees when they are singing
Just a moment of relief is all care
For I’ve got no sorrow heartaches or sadness
As long as I can see the trees that sway

Released in 1992 by Bear Records, the album contains all of the material the Lonesome Pine Fiddlers recorded for Cozy and RCA Records during the early '50s.
