Tennessee Special

The crowd pleasers have arrived

And say they've got me on their minds

The trapeze artists are in full swing

Doing all their favorite things

I'm already on that Tennessee Special

Sure beats lying in my grave

I love you, honey, but you just don't know me

Tennessee Special all the way

Emerald City, diamond eyes

Cloak and dagger in disguise

The city living, it's not for me

And don't you agree?

Woah, woah, won't you agree?

Of course you do

Silly me

I'm already on that Tennessee Special

Sure beats lying in my grave

I'll take the money, but these fools don't own me

Tennessee Special all the way

I'm already on that Tennessee Special

Sure beats lying in my grave

I love you, honey, but you just don't know me

Tennessee Special all the way

Tennessee Special all the way
