Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well a long long time ago
When I left my home to roam
Down in the hills of Tennessee
There was the sweetest little girl
That was ever in this world
That little girl of mine in Tennessee
[Verse 2]
Oh, that little girl of mine in Tennessee
I know she's waiting there for me
Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
[Verse 3]
She's begged me not to go, you'll be sorry dear I know
For the way that you were treating me
Now I rambled all around and nothing can be found
To take the place of her in Tennessee
[Verse 4]
Oh, that little girl of mine in Tennessee
I know she's waiting there for me
Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
[Verse 5]
Someday I'll wander bak to that little cabin mountain shack
And I know she'll be waiting there for me
I can see her smiling face standing at the gate
That little girl of mine in Tennessee
[Verse 6]
Oh, that little girl of mine in Tennessee
I know she's waiting there for me
Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
[Verse 7]
Oh, that little girl of mine in Tennessee
I know she's waiting there for me
Someday I'll settle down in that little country town
With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
