Lyrics

I remember driving through the mountains
Up the hills and along the curvy roads
Sunlight flickerin’ on the windows
Tall trees, everywhere we go

Take me back, back to the mountains
The only place I really want to be
Take me back, back to the mountains
Appalachia’s got a hold on me

Grandma fixin’ up Sunday dinner
Grandpa puffin’ on his pipe
Cousins swingin’ on the front porch
These were the best days of my life

Take me back, back to the mountains
The only place I really want to be
Take me back, back to the mountains
Appalachia’s got a hold on me

Appalachia’s got a hold on me

When I go, raise a stone in the meadow, near the church where Grandma used to sing
Gospel songs from an old hymnal and where you hear the church bells ring

Now I’ll cherish all of my memories
I sure do miss the good old days
But like the clouds lifting over the mountains
They’re a dream that slowly fades away

They’re a dream that slowly fades away…

Take me back, back to the mountains
The only place I really want to be
Take me back, back to the mountains
Appalachia’s got a hold on me

Appalachia’s got a hold on me
Appalachia’s got a hold, hold on me
