Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick for my sunny overgrown country town

I thought I'd like to be a westcoast cowboy but I got lonely as the sun went down

The ladies living here sure are different

They took my hard earned money now they're gone

Never did they ever satisfy me like a hard lovin' country girl back home

Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick for my sunny overgrown country town

Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick I'll ride anything eastern bound

[ guitar ]

Hitchhikin' days get by over not many pickup strangers anymore

Shave my face and cut my hair this morning

Well maybe I'll have better luck than before

Mister thank you for the ride I'm glad to know you're goin' all the way to Alabam

Just let out on 65 in Nashville my sunny overgrown country town

Get me back to Tennessee...
