Junior Sisk & Ramblers Choice Far Cry From Lester And Earl lyrics

It's hard to tell which way the music's going,
And sometimes I wonder how long it will last,
I still listen to all the words and the music,
But it ain't nothing like it was in the past

We got too far away from Carter and Ralph,
And the love of a sweet mountain girl,
We're way down below that high lonesome sound,
And a far cry from Lester and Earl

In the Shenandoah valley of Virginia,
In our little cabin home on the hill,
Stay down to earth, don't get above your raisin',
And it's alright if that's the way you feel

We got too far away from Carter and Ralph,

And the love of a sweet mountain girl,
We're way down below that high lonesome sound,
And a far cry from Lester and Earl

Why does it have to be so complicated,
what happened to the heart of a song,
Have we strayed so far away, that it's all over,
and I wonder if you'll miss me when I'm gone

We got too far away from Carter and Ralph,
And the love of a sweet mountain girl,
We're way down below that high lonesome sound,
And a far cry from Lester and Earl
