Lyrics
Well I was 26 when I forgot how to play
Because my booze only came every other payday
And I can't afford to be that much fun anymore
Because the front porch is the only place
Where I really feel like I am winning a race
But they don't give out trophies
For vomiting on the floor (anymore)
So don't call me, baby
I won't pick up
'Cause I'm in Tennessee
And I'm dreaming 'bout
Passing out at your door
I found Mason jar and it started to leak
Woke up next morning asleep in a creek
With a broken hand and an empty forty-four
Well without too much searching
I found one in my leg
Three in my friend and two in a keg
And the sheriff's dog is barking from the shore
So don't call me, baby
I won't pick up
'Cause I'm in Tennessee
And I'm dreaming 'bout
Passing out at your door
So cut another link from my ball and chain
Leave it by the river so I drown in the rain
'Cause they found my pills
And I can't work off the pain
Well I've had it up to here
With this southern life
All the fine living along with all of the strife
So I've packed my bags and I'm
Headed back to Maine
'Til then
So don't call me, baby
I won't pick up
'Cause I'm in Tennessee
And I'm dreaming 'bout
Passing out at your door
So don't call me, baby
I won't pick up
'Cause I'm in Tennessee
And I'm dreaming 'bout
Passing out at your door
