Tennessee

It ain't often I take time

To answer calls on the request line

But this one says we're his best last chance

So all you people in radio land

Turn it up loud, loud as you can

Help to carry these words from a desperate man

Do you believe in love

And that we were meant to be

Two words can free us

So repeat them after me

'I do' from a boy in love

To a girl called Tennessee

It's always scary when you find true love

It hits like lightning from high above

And you might only get one chance to say

Do you believe in love

And that we were meant to be

Two words can free us

So repeat them after me

'I do' from a boy in love

To a girl called Tennessee

He got scared and let her slip away

Now he knows he's not afraid

I put him on the air

In case she's listening somewhere

So take it to heart

Keep it in mind

Try to reach out through the telephone line

Caller, you're on the air

Say it so she hears

Do you believe in love

And that we were meant to be

Two words can free us

So repeat them after me

'I do' from a boy in love

To a girl called Tennessee

From a boy in love

To a girl called Tennessee
