Lyrics Tom T. Hall

Tom T. Hall

Watertown, Tennessee

I got a little farm and it's mostly rock it ain't too much but it's all I got

Bluebirds singing in the evergreen trees in Watertown Tennessee

Hey Watertown Tennessee

People in Watertown will never do die when they reach a hundred they can truly fly

Sail into heaven on a southerly breeze in Watertown Tennessee

Hey Watertown Tennessee

I had me an outhouse down by the creek prettiest outhouse you ever did see

Flood came along now I'm up the creek in Watertown Tennessee

Hey Watertown Tennessee

Well a big old redhawk circling around looking for a chicken down here on the ground

Sometimes he gets as high as me in Watertown Tennessee

Hey Watertown Tennessee

When I get to heaven if I ever do die I'm a gonna cut me a hole in the sky

Sittin' in a mansion and all I'll see is Watertown Tennessee

Hey Watertown Tennessee

Now if you want to be famous and you want to be rich

People in Watertown taught me a trick

I'm gonna tell it if I stay around long whups that's the end of this song

Called Watertown Tennessee
