My Little Girl in Tennessee - Chris Thile, Michael Daves

Oh, a long long time ago when I left my home alone

Down in the hills of Tennessee

Was the sweetest little girl that was ever in this world

Little girl of mine in Tennessee

Oh, 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

She begged me not to go, You’ll be sorry dear, I know

For the way that you’ve been treating me I have rambled all around but there’s no one else I’ve found

Who could take the place of her in Tennessee

Oh, 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

Someday I’ll wander back to that little run down shack

And that little girl that’s waiting there for me I can see her smiling face waiting for me at the gate

Oh, the little girl of mine in Tennessee

Oh, 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
