You may call me a rover I have rambled around |
|
But I'll quit my roaming when I get to Nashville town |
|
You may call me a liar or a hard-headed fool |
|
But I'm burning into Memphis on a flop-eared mule |
|
I'm Tennessee bound bound bound |
|
Bound bound bound |
|
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound |
|
Come a rolling down the mountain there's a girl of fourteen |
|
She's the sweetest apple blossom just a hillbilly queen |
|
I'm a coming round the mountain, don't you try to follow me |
|
I'm a gonna be her daddy when I get to Tennessee |
|
I'm Tennessee bound bound bound |
|
Bound bound bound |
|
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound |
|
[x2] |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
|
Oh they say the stars in Texas surely shine shine shine |
|
But I'd trade them all to taste a drop of mulberry wine |
|
I'm a coming through the desert if I have to I will crawl |
|
There's a paradise a waiting once I get through Arkansas |
|
I'm Tennessee bound bound bound |
|
Bound bound bound |
|
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound |
|
[x2] |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
|
Ooh Tennessee bound |
