I want to go to Magnolia Mountain
And lay my weary head down
Down on the rocks

On the mountain my savior made
Steady my soul and ease my worry
Hold me when I rattle like a hummingbird hummin'

Tie me to the rocks on the mountain my savior made

Lie to me

Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes
If the morning comes, will you lie to me

Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
Till I'm heavy like the rocks on the riverbed

That my savior made

I want to be the bluebird singing

Singing to the roses in her yard
The roses in her yard her father grew for her
It's been raining that Tennessee honey

So long I got too heavy to fly
Ain't no bluebird ever gets too heavy to sing


Lie to me
Sing me a song
Sing me a song until the morning comes

And if the morning don't come, will you lie to me
Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down

Till I'm heavy like the rocks in the riverbed
That my savior made


We burned the cotton fields down in the valley
And ended up with nothing but scars
The scars became the lessons that we gave to our children after the war

But there ain't nothing but the truth up on the Magnolia Mountain
Where nobody ever dies
Steady your soul and ease your worry

They got a room for you

Lie to me like I lie to you

Calm me down until the morning comes
And if the morning don't come
Lie to me

Will you take me to your bed
Will you lay me down
All heavy like the rocks in the riverbed

That my savior made
For us
