Home In Tennessee

 

Oh yes I'm going back to my home in Tennessee

Back to the girl that's waiting in the cotton fields to see

There's a mother and a dad that's waiting patiently

And the place I'm longing for tonight's my home in Tennessee

 

I'll sail the skies in airplanes to a place called Bunkers Hill

I've dropped from the clouds in a parachute and oh boys what a thrill

I saw shells fall in no mans land and dined in the great prairie

But the place I'm longing for tonight's my home in Tennessee

 

I've been to Frisco's Golden Gate also Bangor, Maine

I've been to the Rocky Mountains and back down again

And up to old New York saw the Statue of Liberty

But the place I'm longing for tonight's my home in Tennessee
