Lyrics

1. you have heard and read about the state of tennessee
Down in the southern states is where I want to be
Where the valleys are so green and mountains are so tall
You will know just what I mean when you hear them say "you all"

Cho: tennessee (tennessee) I hear you calling me (i hear you calling me)
The home of davy crockett in the hills of tennessee

2. when I was a little boy around the folks back home
My mother always said to me: jimmy, please don't roam
Now that I have gone away my heart is full of woe
When I think of mom and dad, that's where I want to go

Cho...

3. if ever I get back to that state of tennessee
I tell you there'll be no more roaming for me
There lives a sweetheart who said she'd marry me
As soon as I get back to that state of tennessee

Cho...
