Tennessee

I kissed you 'cause I've never been an angel

I learned to say hosannas on my knees

But they threw me out of Sunday school when I was nine

And the sisters said I did just as I pleasedNow even so I try to be a good girl

It's only what I want that makes me weak

I had no desire to be a child of sin

Then you went and pressed your whiskers to my cheekFi la lie lie

Fi la lie lee

Now let me go, my honey oh...

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

And sweet Heaven when I dieNow I've tried drinking rye and gamblin'

Dancing with damnation is a ball

But of all the little ways I've found to hurt myself

Well, you might be my favorite one of allFi la lie lie

Fi la lie lee

Now let me go, my honey oh...

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

And sweet Heaven when I dieWhy can't I go and live the Life of Riley?

Why can't I go back home to apple pie?

'Cause your affront to my virtue was a touch too much

But you left a little twinkle in my eyeFi la lie lie

Fi la lie lee

Now let me go, my honey oh...

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

And sweet Heaven when I dieNow some will come confessin' of transgressions

Some will come confessin' of their love

You were there strumming on your gay guitar

You were tryin' to tell me something with your thumbFi la lie lie

Fi la lie lee

Now let me go, my honey oh...

Back to Tennessee

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

And sweet Heaven when I die

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet Heaven when I die

It's beef steak when I'm workin'

Whiskey when I'm dry

Sweet Heaven when I die
