Tenesse Saturday Night |
Now listen while I tell you about a place I know |
Down in Tennessee where the tall corn grows |
Hidden from the world in a bunch of pines |
Where the moon’s a little bashful and it seldom shines |
Civilized people live there alright |
But they all go native on a Saturday night |
Their music is a fiddle and a crack guitar |
They get their kicks from an old fruit jar |
They do the boogie to an old square dance |
The woods are full of couples looking for romance |
Somebody takes his brogan and knocks out the lights |
Yes, they all go native on a Saturday night |
When they really get together there’s a lot of fun |
They all know the other fella packs a gun |
Everybody does his best to act just right |
'Cause it’s gonna be a funeral if you start a fight |
They struggle and they shuffle till the broad daylight |
Yes, they all go native on a Saturday night |
Well, now you’ve heard my story 'bout a place I know |
Down in Tennessee where the tall corn grows |
Hidden from the world in a bunch of pines |
Where the moon’s a little bashful and it seldom shines |
Civilized people live there alright |
But they all go native on a Saturday night |
