Tennessee River

[Verse 1]

I was born across the river

In the mountains where I call home

Lord, times were good there

Don't know why I ever roamed

[Chorus]

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We get together anytime we can

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We play together in Mother Nature's band

[Verse 2]

Me and my woman's done made our plans

On the Tennessee River, walking hand in hand

Going to raise a family, Lord, settle down

Where peace and love can still be found

[Chorus]

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We get together anytime we can

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We play together in Mother Nature's band

[Verse 3]

This mountain king done left his throne

On the Tennessee River and his mountain home

But I'm going back, leaving today

For my homeland so far away

Driving down to Dixie, wasting no time

Back to the good life I left behind

Going to the river with my fishing line

Up on lookout mountain about supper time

Sing it

[Chorus]

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We get together anytime we can

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We play together in Mother Nature's band

Oh, Tennessee River

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We get together anytime we can

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We play together in Mother Nature's band

Sooiieee

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We get together anytime we can

Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man

We play together in Mother Nature's band

Oh Tennessee River
