Tennessee Girl

Well I left home at a crack of dawn just about a year ago
I thumbed my way cross the usa
And I learned a lot I didn't know
The primised Land that I thought
I'd find was always just ahead of me
Until one day when I realized I left it back in tennessee
And that's why I'm going back to my tennessee girl
And a tennessee way of life
And I'm gonna ask my tennessee girl
To be my tennessee wife
Tonight I slept in a hobo camp working out like dog by day
I never got enough to get ahead
Just enough to make my way
Cold and tired when the evening come
All I had to ease my mind
Was thinking bout the place I started from
And the girl that I left behind
And that's why I'm going back to my tennessee girl
And a tennessee way of life
And I'm gonna ask my tennessee girl
To be my tennessee wife
There ain't no place that I been at all
That I would gonna settle in
And every town that I travel
Through made me wanna go home again
The green green grass and the rolling hills
Seem to keep a calling me
Back to the place where I was born
And the girl that I long to see
And that's why I'm going back to my tennessee girl
And a tennessee way of life
And I'm gonna ask my tennessee girl
To be my tennessee wife
And that's why I'm going back to my tennessee girl
And a tennessee way of life
And I'm gonna ask my tennessee girl
To be my tennessee wife
