Tennessee - Hank Williams Jr.

Well, it’s late at night on this old turnpike

And my head’s spinning round and around

It’s a long, long way from New York to Texas

I been through a million towns

Well it’s get off the bus, and get on the stage

The band, and the boys, and me

Take me to Alabama, Mississippi, Montana

They don’t want me back in Tennessee

Tennessee

How could you do this to me?

I gave you some of the best of my days

Ain’t no reason for me to stay

Tennessee

You took the life out of me

What little money I made

I either drank it up, or I gave it away

I tried so long to sell my songs

But Nashville wasn’t the place

All I got for the trouble was fightin' mad

And the door slammed in my face

Tennessee

How could you do this to me?

I gave you some of the best of my days

Ain’t no reason for me to stay

Tennessee

You took the life out of me

What little money I made

I either drank it up, or I gave it away

Tennessee

How could you do this to me?

I gave you some of the best of my days

Ain’t no reason for me to stay

Tennessee

You took the life out of me

What little money I made

I either drank it up, or I gave it away
