P.S. in the live version on CD, they do an extra verse in the middle the
lyrics to it are:
This mountain king, 's done left his throne
On the Tennessee River and his mountain home
But I'm goin' back, leavin' today
to my homeland, so far away
Drivin' down to Dixie, wastin' no time
Back to the good life I left behind
Goin' to the river with my fishin' line
I'm on Lookout Mountain about suppertime
(chorus, last verse, etc.)
