Let me rest on a peaceful mountain
Carter, this is your song
Where the states fold like the states that song
That was your request
You're at rest now
In the hills you so often wrote about and loved so well
Where blue mountain lakes reflect the sun
I never dreamed, I never thought so young you'd be called to rest
On the land that's near my home sweet home
But the Man who called our number, somehow you fit into His plans
We play the same places that we played together
Travel the same roads mile after mile after mile
Your memory is with us all the while
I've relived our lives from beginning to the end
Sometimes ten and twenty times a day
How two little barefoot boys would run, romp and play
I recall our first radio show, our first record
Always side by side, me and you
How we were accepted throughout America and many foreign lands too
Carter, if you can hear me, rest in peace
Someday this earth I'll no longer roam
And we'll be together once again, side by side
In the hills of home
Let me rest on a peaceful mountain
In the hills near my home sweet home
