Wish that I was on ole Rocky Top
|
Down in the Tennessee Hills.
|
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top,
|
Ain't no telephone bills.
|
|
Once I had a girl on Rocky Top,
|
Half bear the other half cat;
|
Wild as a mink as sweet as soda pop,
|
I still dream about that.
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
Rocky Top, you'll always be,
|
Home sweet home to me.
|
Good ole Rocky Top,
|
Rocky Top Tennessee.
|
|
Once two strangers climbed ole Rocky Top,
|
Lookin' for a moonshine still.
|
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top,
|
Reckon they never will.
|
Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top,
|
Dirt's too rocky by far.
|
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top,
|
get their corn from a jar.
|
|
CHORUS
|
|
I've had years of cramped up city life;
|
Trapped like a duck in a pen.
|
All I know is it's a pity life,
|
Can't be simple again.
|
|
CHORUS
