Thanks Owen. Here are the lyrics except for the two words I am asking about in the 3rd Verse...
1st Verse
I wandered far away from the old home
and the simple life I thought I’d never leave.
Just close my eyes and let my memory wander
to the place I’ll always want to be.
CHORUS
I feel the north winds blowin’ through the valley
brings a chill as it bends a red oak tree.
I know the dogwood’s bloomin’ on the hill side
just above the place where you can bury me.
2nd Verse
I miss the conversation on the front porch
talkin’ ‘bout the way things used to be.
Then Uncle John would tune up his old fiddle
and play the sweetest mountain melody.
3rd Verse
I wish I could return to my childhood.
Summer days so long and time was still.
Walkin’ by the creek-side in the moonlight
on our way back home from ???
Found them on lyrics online
Hattie’s mill
The Lonesome River Band - The Place Where You Can Bury Me lyrics
I wandered far away from the old home And the simple life I thought I'd never leave
Just close my eyes and let my memory wander
To the place I know I'll always want to be
Chorus
I feel the north winds blowing through the valley
Brings a chill as it bends a red oak tree
I know the dogwoods blooming on the hillside Just above the place where you can bury me
I miss the conversation on the front porch Talking about the way things used to be
Then Uncle John would tune up his old fiddle And play the sweetest mountain melody
I wish I could return to my childhood Summer days so long and time was still Walking by the creekside in the moonlight On our way back home from Hatties Mill
