Lyrics:
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home.
Lord, times were good there.
Don't know why I ever roamed.
Chorus:
Oh, Tennessee
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
and Johnny
Elvis and Jerry Played
Down rt. 72
Mississippi / Alabama way
Next Stop Muscle Shoals
I kept hearing Ronnie say
Something in that Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
Tennessee River and a mountain man, we get together anytime we can.
Oh, Tennessee River and a mountain man, we play together in Mother Nature's
Band.
Me
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
I was born across the river
In the mountains where I call home
Lord, times were good there
Don't know why I ever roamed
Oh, Tennessee River
Worked all week, got it all done
Let's make a Tennessee River run
Hey everybody, I think the time is right
Let's get together down where the catfish
on the shoulder and offered her a ride
With just one look, it was heart and soul
We were like a river runnin' out of control
When the Tennessee river hits
Worked all week, got it all done
Let's make a Tennessee River run
Hey everybody, I think the time is right
Let's get together down where
pickup truck
Singing, “I'm a son of the Tennessee River
Been around for many long day
Hidey ho, I'm gonna catch a biggun
cnd I ain't gonna let him get
Singin' the songs that I wrote
On a flat bottomed boat
Livin' on the Tennessee River in
The heart of Alabam'
Roll Tennessee River
(Keep On) Rollin' through
to hell without warning
We said our vows and I gave you my heart
But a house without love falls apart
Now I'm rounding that Tennessee River
Rolling north
and
There it was in the rearview mirror
Broke wide open like a Tennessee river
Face went even more red than my tail lights (my tail lights)
Standing
old truck
And that night I kissed her
A first love grew wings
While the fireflies blinked by the Tennessee River
And we sang along to the radio
town
Thought we had it all figured out
Runnin' wild like a Tennessee river
Little reckless and a little hellbound
We were tailgate talkin' 'bout
Tommy Harden
Lorrie Harden
He met her that day on the Tennessee river
Beneath the shade of a willow tree
He held out a rose as he said, voice
take
Cut my love up in slices and slivers
Left it scattered on soft bedroom floors
Threw my keys in the Tennessee River
Just to go home and kick down
might navigate the whirl and the suck
Well, the Tennessee River changed its mind
At Chattanooga she oughta unwind
She could a run right on the Georgia
On the bank of a Tennessee River
In a small Kentucky town
I drew my first breath one cold November morning
And before my feet even touched the ground
