Cabin Creek Stone Mill Dam

I think about the way it was many years ago
When the warm breeze of summer filled the air
And the sound of children playing around the old mill pond
Makes me long once more to be there


The water sparkles clear as it flows across the dam
Where the old stone mill used to stand
And all my childhood memories go racing through my mind
Where I was raised with mom's helping hand


Chorus
Now I'd like to go back to that homeplace of mine
And listen to the wonderful sound
Of the water that flows, like my memory, so clear
O'er the Cabin Creek stone mill dam


My mother had to raise us since I was just a boy
For my father died when I was just a lad
But we always had enough to eat and we had clothes to wear
We were thankful for all the things we had


Just place me on the hillside that overlooks the mill
Where I could often be found
Listening to the sound of the water as it flows
O'er the Cabin Creek stone mill dam


Chorus
O'er the Cabin Creek stone mill dam
O'er the Cabin Creek stone mill dam
