Tennessee Jed>

Cold iron shackles

And ball and chain

Listen to the whistle

Of the evenin' trainYou know you

Bound to wind up dead

If you don't head back

To Tennessee JedRich man step on

My poor head

When you get back

You better butter my breadYou know you

Well, it's like I said

You better head back

To Tennessee JedTennessee, Tennessee

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Baby, won't you carry me

Back to TennesseeI woke up

But feelin' mean

Went down to play

The slot machineThe wheels turned around

Baby, the letters read

You better head back

To Tennessee JedI dropped four flights

And cracked my spine

Honey, come quick

With the iodineCatch a few winks

Down, under the bed

And then we head back

To Tennessee JedTennessee, Tennessee

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Baby, won't you carry me

Back to TennesseeI run into

Charlie Fog

Blacked my eye

And he kicked my dogMy doggie turned to me

And he said

"Let's head back

To Tennessee Jed"Drink all day

Baby, rock all night

The law come to get you

If you don't walk rightCatch a few winks

Down, under the bed

Then we head back

To Tennessee JedTennessee, Tennessee

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Baby, won't you carry me

Back to TennesseeTennessee, Tennessee

There ain't no place I'd rather be

Baby, won't you carry me

Back to Tennessee
