Lyrics
Sunset on the mountain, a half moon in the sky
North star was rising slowly, shining in my eye
Tennessee was glowing, misty brown and green
We were all united singing to the land
We were singing
We ain't got no diamond-studded Cadillacs
We ain't got no furry minks across our backs
We don't worry about the things that we can't see
We got all we need, we got Tennessee
Joe's got rice and turkey, Mac's got bread and wine
We got something special toking, good old Tennessee vine
Sitting by the fire, fiddle in my hand
Talking about the times we had, singing to the land
We were singing
We ain't got no diamond-studded Cadillacs
We ain't got no furry minks across our backs
We don't worry about the things that we can't see
We got all we need, we got Tennessee
Darkness falls behind me, crickets join in song
Red bird on the wire chirping says to me so long
Snow drifts crowns behind me above the lofty pine
Soon I'll be home dreaming, Smokey's by my side
Yeah, yeah
We ain't got no diamond-studded Cadillacs
We ain't got no furry minks across our backs
We don't worry about the things that we can't see
We got all we need, we got Tennessee
We got Tennessee
We ain't got no diamond-studded Cadillacs
We ain't got no furry minks across our backs
We don't worry about the things that we can't see
We got all we need, we got Tennessee
