Tennesee oh what I'd give to be back there once again with all the old friends Who were so kind to me oh Tennessee I was happy as could be Never got too much done but livin' sure was fun in Tennessee This big city just depresses me though everybody's as kind as can be A homesick feeling possesses me I won't be the same till I'm back there again Tennessee guess the country boy in me Won't ever be at ease till I feel that southern breeze in Tennessee I won't ever be at ease till I feel that southern breeze in Tennessee
