Tennessee Bound

You may call me a rover I have rambled around
But I'll quit my roaming when I get to Nashville town
You may call me a liar or a hard-headed fool
But I'm burning into Memphis on a flop-eared mule.

I'm Tennessee bound bound bound
Bound bound bound
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound.

Come a rolling down the mountain there's a girl of fourteen
She's the sweetest apple blossom just a hillbilly queen
I'm a coming round the mountain, don't you try to follow me
I'm a gonna be her daddy when I get to Tennessee.

I'm Tennessee bound bound bound
Bound bound bound
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound.
[x2]

Ooh Tennessee bound
Ooh Tennessee bound.

Oh they say the stars in Texas surely shine shine shine
But I'd trade them all to taste a drop of mulberry wine
I'm a coming through the desert if I have to I will crawl
There's a paradise a waiting once I get through Arkansas.

I'm Tennessee bound bound bound
Bound bound bound
Good Lord I'm Tennessee bound.
[x2]

Ooh Tennessee bound
Ooh Tennessee bound
Ooh Tennessee bound
Ooh Tennessee bound.
