I talked to your sister last night on the telephone |
|
You know she always thought pretty well of me |
|
She said that the wedding went fine |
|
And you were up in New York on your honeymoon |
|
Tonight I'm down, in Tennessee |
|
I got that letter you wrote, it tore me up |
|
But I don't have anyone to blame but me |
|
I had it all for a while but like everything else, I messed it up |
|
Tonight I'm down, in Tennessee |
|
It's blue tonight and getting bluer |
|
But I'm in the state that I deserve to be |
|
Without you I just can't see things ever looking up for me |
|
I'm so down, in Tennessee |
|
I hope you're happy with him, he's a lucky man |
|
I hope he gives you that home and family |
|
I just want to say if by chance you are ever this way, look me up |
|
I'll be down, in Tennessee |
|
It's blue tonight and getting bluer |
|
But I'm in the state that I deserve to be |
|
Without you I just can't see things ever looking up for me |
|
I'm so down, in Tennessee |
|
I'm so down, in Tennessee |
|
I'm gonna be down, in Tennessee |
