The Oak Ridge Boys - Take A Step (Yesterday Waltz) lyrics

Way up in the mountains
Above the green hills lives a poor hermit
With an old homemade fiddle
In the late afternoon
When the days work is through
He cradles that fiddle like a
Girl he once knew

Take a step, take a step
Take an old fashioned step
He's beginning to remember the tune
Another step, another step
Another old fashioned step
It's almost like she's in the room
He's playing the Yesterday Waltz

One day late last winter before the big snow
He packed up his fiddle and
All of his clothes his boney old donkey
Some corn from his still
And he walked all the way down


Into those green hills

Take a step, take a step
Take an old fashioned step
He's beginning to remember the tune
Another step, another step
Another old fashioned step
And soon he'll be there in her room
Playing the Yesterday Waltz

Way down in the meadow, the valley so low
There lives a poor spinster
With an old gramaphone
One night before bedtime, along with the rain
She heard someone playing a familiar refrain

Take a step, take a step
Take an old fashioned step
And now she remembers the tune
Another step, another step
Another old fashioned step
And yesterday fills up the room
They're dancing the Yesterday Waltz

Take a step, take a step
Take an old fashioned step
And now they remember the tune
Another step, another step
Another old fashioned step
And yesterday fills up the room
They're dancing the Yesterday Waltz

Take a step, take a step
Take an old fashioned step
They're dancing the Yesterday Waltz
