Tennessee Love - Yelawolf

I must be Jim Morrison to get a motherfucking girl like you

Don’t know what I did in my past life

But it must have been something cool

'Cause I’m a whiskey-drinkin', fight-provoking, cigarette-smoking dude

I got a problem with my attitude

It’s hard for me to keep cool

But when I look at you, I see me

A reflection of a real soul

So pardon me if I may seem

Loose and out of control

It ain’t the drink talkin'

It’s me talking

Fuck if everyone knows

You my girl and that’s that

So hop on the back of this bike and roll

Let’s roll now

I never let someone straight up disrespect you

I never let someone call you out your name

I’ll always be the one that runs up to protect you

'Cause I know if I was down you’d come and do the same

So, let’s pack it up and move our life to Nashville

Build a studio in the house and do our thing

And I’ll take you out and we’ll go honky-tonkin'

Get drunk and fall in Tennessee love

Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Can’t you see that my hands are shaking?

Withdrawals from alcohol.

Ain’t no use in us faking

But it’s our life.

Ain’t it, baby?

So ain’t no use in us taking

A chance with it

So, I promise that I’ll work on my patience

Someday if we get lucky and we grow and get old

We’ll look back and laugh about the circus and the show

But for now we live it up, we spend it up and we go

To the last call in every bar in this town

Turn the lights on and close

You and me now

I never let someone straight up disrespect you

I never let someone call you out your name

I’ll always be the one that runs up to protect you

'Cause I know if I was down you’d come and do the same

So, let’s pack it up and move our life to Nashville

Build a studio in the house and do our thing

And I’ll take you out and we’ll go honky-tonkin'

Get drunk and fall in Tennessee love

Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

When I first met you I was so broke

And I tried to hide behind

The Alabama pines

Praying that you didn’t know

About my problems

'Cause I couldn’t bear to see you go

And when you found out

All that happened

Your little heart was broke

And I had to earn it back

And I learned in fact

That money don’t fix that shit

Not tattoos and «I love you"s

It’s trust that I had to get

I’m sorry that I ever hurt you for anything that I did

Can I put this ring on your finger, let you know that I’m serious?

Marry me now

I never let someone straight up disrespect you

I never let someone call you out your name

I’ll always be the one that runs up to protect you

'Cause I know if I was down you’d come and do the same

So, let’s pack it up and move our life to Nashville

Build a studio in the house and do our thing

And I’ll take you out and we’ll go honky tonkin'

Get drunk and fall in Tennessee love

Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love

Fall in Tennessee love
