charley pride - tennessee girl lyrics
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 workin’ 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 thinkin’ bout the place i started from and the girl that i left behind
and that’s why i’m going back…
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 gr-ss and the rollin’ hills seem to keep a callin’ 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…
i’m going back…
