Tennesee lyrics

Now there are folks who like to brag about where they came from
But when they start that stuff I let em be
But it makes me feel like I wanna brag some
To know that I come from the state of Tennessee

Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old Hillbilly way

Mister Red Foley came from Kentucky
Now, Ernest Tubb down in Texas, don t you see
But if all you folks out there can remember
Mister Eddy Arnold came from Tennessee

Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way

They make bombs they say, that can blow up our world, dear
Well a country boy like me, I will agree
But if all you folks out there can remember
They made the first atomic bomb in Tennessee

Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way

Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it up in Nashville everyday
Let s give old Tennessee credit for music
As they play it in that old hillbilly way
