Lyrics
One day I'll be
Back home in Tennessee
But there ain't much work to do there
If a man could make a life on
String beans and twine
He might not worry away all his hair
It was there I came to be
There I felt free
Where the streams sing their own song
Could someone leave a light on?
Cause I'm coming home to stay
Someday
Take me back to Tennessee
With my momma there waiting for me
Wild as hell swinging from a tree
At my home back in Tennessee
Way up on a mountain
Cool water from a fountain
That flows down from the pines
Where a man could survive on
Muscadine wine
Oh lord
I wanna go there
Take me back to Tennessee
With my mammaw there waiting for me
Wild as hell swinging from a tree
At my home back in Tennessee
I know you can't go home again
But I'd sure like to try
Take me back to Tennessee
With my papaw there waiting for me
Wild as hell swinging from a tree
At my home back in Tennessee
My home back in Tennessee
