special consensus - she took the tennessee river lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well i lost my heart in knoxville town to a no+good river rat
found out pretty early on she was never where she’s at
well the good times rolled ’til the day i told her i was wantin’ more
come to find oh she’s the kind that won’t tie to the shore

[chorus]
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river (and down)
down to chattanooga (and around)
on and to paducah ([?])
then the ohio through to catch thе mississippi
and ride it down to new orleans

[verse 2]
hеard she was singin’ in a honkytonk right about the georgia line
so i laid out on the southern route, but couldn’t get there in time
talked to a man in alabam, he gave me a little hope
he said, “i know the one, but i’m sorry, son; you just missed the boat.”

[chorus]
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river (and down)
down to chattanooga (and around)
on and to paducah ([?])
then the ohio through to catch the mississippi
and then ride it down to new orleans
[verse 3]
now i made it to kentucky, boys; i feel like i could die
as from where i stand, i can see her hand wavin’ me goodbye
she’s on the deck of a big sternwheeler, stacks are blowin’ coal
i won’t give in if i have to swim to the gulf of mexico

[chorus]
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river
she took the tennessee river (and down)
down to chattanooga (and around)
on and to paducah ([?])
then the ohio through to catch the mississippi
and ride it down to new orleans

[outro]
to catch the mississippi
and ride it down to new orleans
