How many Bluegrass songs can you name that in one way or another touch on the subject of "hills" or "rolling hills"?
Bill Monroe, the Father of Bluegrass Music, penned many songs in which he spoke of  -or evenly casually mentioned-  the hills he loved so dearly. Here are a few:
"The First Whippoorwill"; "Footprints In The Snow"; "I'm Going Back to the Old Home"; and an entirely different tune with a similar title called "I'm on My Way Back to the Old Home"; "I'm Waiting For You"; "Little Cabin Home on the Hill"; "Mother's Only Sleeping"; "My Rose of Old Kentucky"; "Old, Old House"; "Roane County Prison" and "Why Did You Wander" to name a few.
