Loved the audio, but the video of the mountains do not fit the song. I grew up in western North Carolina in the shadow of the real "old smokey" - the great Smokey Mountains National Park on the NC and TN line. The name Smokey Mountains comes from the blue haze,and fog lying in the mountain valleys which gives the visual of "smoke" settling on the ground and mountain tops.
Song was a favorite and always sung, several times, at the Mountain You Jamboree in Asheville, NC in the 1950's.

A song echoing from my childhood, innocent and happy times.
(I was both innocent and happy, now I'm guilty and unhappy, life etc. etc.)
