Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick for my sunny overgrown country town I thought I'd like to be a westcoast cowboy but I got lonely as the sun went down The ladies living here sure are different They took my hard earned money now they're gone Never did they ever satisfy me like a hard lovin' country girl back home Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick for my sunny overgrown country town Get me back to Tennessee I'm homesick I'll ride anything eastern bound [ guitar ] Hitchhikin' days get by over not many pickup strangers anymore Shave my face and cut my hair this morning Well maybe I'll have better luck than before Mister thank you for the ride I'm glad to know you're goin' all the way to Alabam Just let out on 65 in Nashville my sunny overgrown country town Get me back to Tennessee...
