Right Now Tennessee Blues

Some friends of mine who moved out west called me the other day
Said come down and see us any time you’re out our way
Said the sky is blue and the ocean is too finest place you’ve ever seen
But there’s too much town and not enough ground and the ocean ain’t blue it’s green
(Chorus)
I got them got to get on back, right now,Tennessee blues
Seems like every other place I ever go is just bad news
It’s a feelin that I get every time I put on my travelin shoes
Got them got to get on back, right now, Tennessee blues
I’d like to thank you people for your hospitality
It sure was fine of all y’all for puttin up. with me
Your New York women’s pretty and your whiskeys tasting fine
It’s sure been fun but I got to run Mountain Dew gets on my mind
(Ch)
There’s a cotton field near Memphis where I learned to pick the blues
And a honky-tonk in Nashville where I started paying dues
I’m going to Chattanooga now and it won’t be long I hope
Till we get on down to Knoxville and make them Smoky Mountains smoke
(Ch)
