Lyrics
Sweet Appalachia I’ve got that sweet mountain soul down in my bones And I can feel it when I sing them lonesome songs And I can tell by the way I feel That it comes from somewhere real Got that sweet mountain soul down in my bones I’ve got that sweet mountain spirit in my veins And it flows through my heart like a mountain rain And no matter where I might roam These hills and hollers are still my home Got that sweet mountain spirit in my veins (CHO) Some people call me Hillbilly Some people call me Mountain Man Well, you can call me Appalachia ‘Cause Appalachia is what I am I’ve got that sweet Appalachia all over me Look at me and Appalachia is what you see And no matter where I might roam Appalachia is still my home Got that sweet Appalachia all over me I’ve got that sweet mountain soul down in my bones Got that sweet mountain spirit down in my veins Got that sweet Appalachia all over me DOC © 2006 by Alan Johnston

Yessiree..Appalachia is what you is! Fine tune...love how even tho you use bluegrass instruments, you throw in all those stops and flirt with rock phrasing. Vox are earthy and soulful and the dobro and banjo playing is ace. Not sure hard core city folks can really understand where you are coming from lyrically, but i sure as heck can. Great song!
