Lyrics The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

Tennessee

We've got it all and more it seems

Livin' out all our dreams

But sometimes I wish we could be

Goin' home to Tennessee.

Where life was simple, sweet and slow

Late nights by the radio

More and more my memories

Are stealin' away to Tennessee.

God sure paints a picture fine

Sunlight golden through the pines

A prettier sight you'll never see

Than flowers in Spring time in Tennessee.

Where life was simple, sweet and slow

Late nights by the radio

More and more my memories

Are stealin' away to Tennessee.

We didn't have what we have now

But we got by somehow

Mountain rivers flow endlessly

Like my love for Tennessee.

Where life was simple, sweet and slow

Late nights by the radio

More and more my memories

Are stealin' away to Tennessee

They're stealin' away to Tennessee.
