I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville
|
I found out those bright lights aint where I belong
|
From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her
|
I've had a change of dreams I'm comin' home
|
But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone
|
|
Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
|
I keep on callin' her name
|
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
|
I can't go on hurtin' this way
|
She's somewhere in the Smokey Mountain rain
|
|
I waved a diesel down outside a cafe'
|
He said that he was goin' as far as Gatlinburg
|
I climbed up in the cab all wet and cold and lonely
|
I wiped my eyes and told him about her
|
I've got to find her!
|
Can you make these big wheels burn?
|
|
Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
|
I keep on callin' her name
|
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
|
I can't go on hurtin' this way
|
She's somewhere in the Smokey Mountain rain
|
|
I can't blame her for lettin' go
|
A woman needs someone warm to hold
|
I feel the rain runnin' down my face
|
I'll find her no matter what it takes!
|
|
Smokey Mountain rain keeps on fallin'
|
I keep on callin' her name
|
Smokey Mountain rain I'll keep on searchin'
|
I can't go on hurtin' this way
|
She's somewhere in the Smokey Mountain rain
|
