Athens County - Jonathan Edwards

Way down in Athens County, that’s where I am

I’m goin' on the road tomorrow, up to Amsterdam

Way down in Athens County, we stop and have some wine

Athens County, Maria and me, we’re doin' fine

Sweet Maria, never long gone

Sweet Maria, never long gone, never long gone

I just got into this town, I’m feeling mighty good

I found my good friend sound, I had a hunch I would

Way down in Athens County, that’s where I am

I’m goin' on the road tomorrow, up to Amsterdam

Way down in Athens County, we stop and have some wine

Athens County, Maria and me, we’re doin' fine

Sweet Maria, never long gone

Sweet Maria, never long gone, never long gone

That’s my good friend John, he’s whistlin' a bluegrass tune

We pick it in the sunshine, sing it in the afternoon

Way down in Athens County, that’s where I am

I’m goin' on the road tomorrow, up to Amsterdam

Way down in Athens County, we stop and have some wine

Athens County, Maria and me, we’re doin' fine

Sweet Maria, never long gone

Sweet Maria, never long gone

Well, hello, Maria

Sweet Maria, never long gone

So long, Sweet Maria, never long gone

Hello, Maria

Sweet Maria, never long gone

Oh no
