Lyrics Dolly Parton

Dolly Parton

Rocky Top

Well, I wish that I was on old Rocky Top

Down in the Tennessee hills

'Cause there ain't no smog, no smoke on Rocky Top

Ain't no telephone bill

Now but once I had me a man on Rocky Top

Half bear the other half cat

Well, he was wild as a mink but he was sweet as soda-pop

I often think about that

Oh, Rocky Top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ol' Rocky Top

Rocky Top, Tennessee, Rocky Top, Tennessee

Now once two strangers climbed ol' Rocky Top

Lookin' for a moonshine still

Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top

And some say they never will

Did you know corn don't grow at all on Rocky Top?

The dirt's too rocky by far

And that's why all the folks on Rocky Top

Get their corn from a jar

Oh, Rocky Top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ol' Rocky Top

Rocky Top, Tennessee, Rocky Top, Tennessee

Now I've had years of cramped up city life

Trapped luck a duck in a pen

All I know is it's a dad-burn pity

Life can't be simple again

Oh, Rocky Top, you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ol' Rocky Top

Rocky Top, Tennessee, Rocky Top, Tennessee

Rocky Top, Tennessee

Tennessee, Rocky Top
