Charlotte Morris - Tennessee

Driving in your beat up truck down back roads
Listening to Joni way up loud
Drawing out the seconds til it's over
Cause they say that's what being young is about

Now we might not grow old together
We might not tell stories to our kids
Cause baby we ain't meant to be
I'm not your only one
But I will always have

That Tennessee boy with the stars in his eyes
Drinking Tennessee whiskey ‘neath the Tennessee sky
Chasing muddy waters where the smokies meet their end
Spending nights wrapped up in pretend
I will always have Tennessee
cnd Tenneesee will always have me

Wasting nights just getting lost in neon
Dancing to the songs that you don't know
ccting like we'll be this way forever
We just ignore the signs that say we should let go

Cause this ain't what they write about in movies
Just booze and passion, mixed with lonely nights
But baby when you look at me
You see into my soul
So it helps the hurt to know

That Tennessee boy with the stars in his eyes
Drinking Tennessee whiskey ‘neath the Tennessee sky
Chasing muddy waters where the smokies meet their end
Spending nights wrapped up in pretend
I will always have Tennessee
cnd Tenneesee will always have me

I can see a life without you, and it's good
Cause I know I'll never love you like I should
But years from now I'll look back at these months
Just happy to remember what I had once

This Tennessee boy with the stars in his eyes
Drinking Tennessee whiskey ‘neath the Tennessee sky
Chasing muddy waters where the smokies meet their end
Spending nights wrapped up in pretend
I will always have Tennessee
cnd Tennessee will always have me
Yes Tennessee will always have me
