I Wonder If The Creeks Are Flowing Still

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

Homestead standing stately by the hill

I wonder if the springtime flowers blossom by the mill

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

I wonder if the grass is just as green

Mountain track still winding by the stream

And I wonder if the homestead fires burn late into the night

I wonder if the stars are just as bright

And I wonder if the sunset still brings tears

You know I haven't been that way for years

And I wonder if its splendor still shines above the hill

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

And I wonder if there's still a boundary gate

Where we met the neighbor's kids when it was late

And I wonder if the game is right or still takes on the dare

I wonder if they do now I'm not there

And I wonder if the cattle yards still stand

Built of mountain timber hewn by hand

And I wonder if the dust clouds rise above the holding pen

I wonder if I'll muster there again

Now I wonder if it's time for me to go

Back to the mountains where the rivers flow

I wonder if the friends are gone and the flowers by the mill

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

Homestead standing stately by the hill

I wonder if the friends are gone and the flowers by the mill

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still

I wonder if the creeks are flowing still
