My Tennessee Mountain Home
Sittin' on the front porch on a summer afternoon
In a straightback chair on two legs, leans against the wall
Watch the kids a' playin' with June bugs on a string
And chase the glowin' fireflies when evenin' shadows fall
Chorus:
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
Honeysuckle vine clings to the fence along the lane
Their fragrance makes the summer wind so sweet
And on a distant hilltop, an eagle spreads it's wings
An' a songbird on a fence post sings a melody
Repeat Chorus
Walkin' home from church on a Sunday with the one ya' love
Just laughin', talkin', making future plans
And when the folks ain't lookin', you might steal a kiss or two
Sittin' in the porch swing, holdin' hands
Repeat Chorus
We recommend: Heaven
And so shes easily board
Shes got just one problem, stupid question
But shes up for my suggestions
So I just learn to ignore
And now shes looking for a lover endowed just like her mother
She said she needs a change of scene
I thought she meant a haircut
Maybe some new make-up
I think this is a little extreme!!!
When she first came into the bedroom I'd say
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
(ROCK ROCK ROCK ROCK)
But that backfired cos she likes her girlfriend better so
