Lake Fork Verne and his banjo. Original country and Americana songs. Songs of yesteryear, growing up during the great depression 1930's and the way things are
Just me and my banjo...writing and singing about how things used to be long ago in the 30;s and 40's and how those experiences affect today. I started out wanting to get on record these stories and songs for my grandchildren; but after doing it for a while, others have expresses interest so we are recording and putting them out there.

Lyrics
Where the Old Allegheny and Monongahela Flow Public Domain Arranged by: Verne Garrison Copyright: Verne Garrison 07272013 Banjo tuned E Capo 1 Key of D I want to go back once more To those hills I roamed before To gaze upon those hills and mills Where those mighty rivers flow CHORUS: I live in that city that is built among the hills Where smoke is always pouring from the big rolling mills And steamboats on the rivers go towing to and fro Where the old Allegheny and Monongahela flow.
