If I had my way, I'd leave here today
I'd leave in a hurry
I find me a place where I could stay
And won't have to worry
A place I'd feel loose
A place I could lose
These Tennessee blues
I'd find me a spot, on a mountain top
With no one around me
With valleys and streams
And birds in the trees
With lakes that surround me
A place I'd feel loose
A place I could lose
These Tennessee blues
A place to forget, all my regrets
And keep just the good times
Some place I could sleep in nothing but peace
And feel free at all times
Some place I'd feel loose
A place I could lose
These Tennessee blues
Some place I could lose
These Tennessee blues
