Tennessee |
| I’ve seen rocky mountains and great lakes |
| Stood beneath a redwood tree |
| But wherever I go my heart aches |
| For a place called Tennessee |
| Oh come with me |
| Where the Whiskey flows like wine |
| And the meth labs are divine |
| Oh I wanna be |
| Where the sweet tobacco grows |
| And it’s picked by poor Negros |
| In Tennessee |
| Oh it’s a place where dueling banjos play |
| And the mountain folk run free |
| Where all the children can spell KKK |
| But cannot spell Tennessee |
| Oh come with me |
| Where every cheek is filled with chew |
| And no one’s ever seen a Jew |
| Oh I wanna be |
| Where the hotdogs are deep fried |
| That’s the reason Elvis died |
| In Tennessee |
| Oh come with me |
| Where the Baptist preachers shout |
| That if you’re gay you best get out |
| Oh I wanna be |
| Where hospitality’s the thing |
| Just ask Martin Luther King |
| Shot in Tennessee |
| The birth place of Aretha queen of soul |
| The B.B. King and Al Gore |
| I’m not saying it’s a shit hole |
| But they don’t live there anymore |
| Oh I wanna see |
| Mountain dew in every cup |
| And all the dentists just gave up |
| Oh come with me |
| On my fat bed pickup truck |
| That’s where the classy ladies fuck |
| In Tennessee |
| Oh in Tennessee |
