Leavin' Tennessee Lyrics

The sun is settin' on our time living here
You've lost the will, I've lost the heart
We should be leavin' while the coast is still clear'Cause we won't make it after dawn
We can cash in our chips and pack up the car
Lock up the door and hide the keyThe only two things that mean anything to me
Are loving you and leaving TennesseeSilver eagles fly down streets paved with gold
Stars keep shining through the dawn
Anything you can dream of to holdYou can have here for a song
But there's a song tonight that's riding the wind
I'm the words and you're the melodyThe only two things that mean anything to me
Are loving you and leaving TennesseeIt's just the two of us all out on our own
That's the way it ought to beThe only two things that mean anything to me
Are loving you and leaving TennesseeWe can call up all our friends on the phone
Tell them that someday we'll return
First, we have to start to make a new homeWe have one last bridge to burn
Lay your head down and we'll drive through the night
And in the morning light you're gonna seeThe only things that mean anything to me
Are loving you and leaving Tennessee

The only things that mean anything to me
Are loving you and leaving Tennessee
