Tennessee

The grass is just a little bit greener
The whiskey's a little bit sweeter
The music pouring out onto the street
If the Cumberland is flowing
Then the guitar shop is open
It sounds just like the place I wanna be

I can sure get down in Kentucky
New York City's been a friend to me
But if there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like my sweet Tennessee

Anytime that you could use it
You can always hear some music
It ain't all country we got rock and roll
Don't you be mistaken
It's a trip that's sure worth taken
Music City is the place that I call home

I could drift away to Carolina
I'd love to feel that California free
If there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like my sweet Tennessee

I still dig the roots down in the delta
And in Muscle Shoals where that river sings
If there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like Nashville, Tennessee
