|
Well, I've been traveling around
|
Meetin' all kinds of people
|
Who'd take me in with a grin, make a friend
|
Make me feel so special
|
|
Well, ya'll have been so nice to me
|
I wanna return the favor, everything'll be free
|
But it's ya'll's turn to come down south
|
And Tennes-See-Me
|
|
Oh, life on the road can really get old
|
But you've made it a home for me
|
From Arizona to Montana, Texas, Indiana
|
Made friends that I wanna see
|
|
Oh, I'm goin' home tomorrow
|
And I'm gonna throw a party
|
Gonna be the place to be
|
So, you can't stay home, you'll only be alone
|
Ya gotta come and Tennes-See-Me
|
|
When I stay satisfied
|
Thankful to be doin' what I'm doin'
|
I could be over seas in the wars
|
And a-livin' a new way
|
|
But God's been so good to me
|
I wanna share it all with ya
|
What he wants us to be
|
And it's not that hard to show
|
I'm in Tennes-See Me
|
|
Oh, life on the road can really grow old
|
But you've made it a home for me
|
From Arizona to Montana, Texas, Indiana
|
Made friends that I wanna see
|
|
Oh, we're goin' home tomorrow
|
And I'm gonna throw a party
|
Gonna be the place to be
|
So, you can't stay at home, you'll only be alone
|
Ya gotta come and Tennes-See-Me
|
|
(instrumental)
|
|
Well, I feel so happy
|
I wanna just keep on singin'
|
A-this songs got me rockin' an a-reelin'
|
And it's got me to thinkin'
|
Well, it ain't a bad place to be
|
I might retire in the mountains
|
Just sing it to the trees
|
Cause this beauty is heavenly
|
Come and Tennes-See Me
|
|
Oh, life on the road can really get old
|
But you've made it a home for me
|
From Arizona to Montana, Texas, Indiana
|
Made friends that I wanna see
|
|
I'm goin' home tomorrow
|
And I'm gonna throw a party
|
Gonna be the place to be
|
So, you can't stay at home, you'll only be alone
|
You gotta come and Tennes-See-Me
|
|
No, you can't stay at home
|
You'll only be alone
|
Gotta come and Tennes-See-Me.
