I got a little farm and it's mostly rock it ain't too much but it's all I got
|
Bluebirds singing in the evergreen trees in Watertown Tennessee
|
Hey Watertown Tennessee
|
People in Watertown will never do die when they reach a hundred they can truly fly
|
Sail into heaven on a southerly breeze in Watertown Tennessee
|
Hey Watertown Tennessee
|
[ mandolin ]
|
I had me an outhouse down by the creek prettiest outhouse you ever did see
|
Flood came along now I'm up the creek in Watertown Tennessee
|
Hey Watertown Tennessee
|
Well a big old redhawk circling around looking for a chicken down here on the ground
|
Sometimes he gets as high as me in Watertown Tennessee
|
Hey Watertown Tennessee
|
[ slide guitar ]
|
When I get to heaven if I ever do die I'm a gonna cut me a hole in the sky
|
Sittin' in a mansion and all I'll see is Watertown Tennessee
|
Hey Watertown Tennessee
|
Now if you want to be famous and you want to be rich
|
People in Watertown taught me a trick
|
I'm gonna tell it if I stay around long whups that's the end of this song
|
Called Watertown Tennessee
