Rocky Mountain Music Songtext
von Eddie Rabbitt

Back upon an old dirt road
Next to a swamp full of toads
Was a slanted wood shack
With three little kids and a mama

Papa died in ′63
Left little Jenny and me
To plant those taters
And pull up another tomorrow

Rocky Mountain music
Fills my memory
Rocky Mountain music
Papa can I hear you playing for me?

Little brother was never quite right
He used to sit on the floor in the sunlight
Play with the dust that danced
On the beams in the window


And sister had to cook and clean
'Cause mama she got sick and lean
Sometimes I think she just died away
Missing papa

Rocky Mountain music
Fills my memory
Rocky Mountain music
Mama can I hear you singing to me?

Well every thing has changed today
And little brother he was taken away
And sister, she married a soldier
And lives in Toledo

And me I′m in a Nashville bar
And I've never been so far
From that old gravel road
And the rivers that run through my memory

Rocky Mountain music
Fills my memory
Rocky Mountain music
Brother can I hear you calling me?


Rocky Mountain music
Fills my memory
Rocky Mountain music
Papa can I hear you playing for me?
