Charley Pride - Tennessee Girl Lyrics
Well I left home at a crack of dawn just about a year ago
I thumbed my way cross the USA and I learned a lot I didn't know
The Primised Land that I thought I'd find was always just ahead of me
Until one day when I realized I left it back in Tennessee
And that's why I'm going back to my Tennessee girl and a Tennessee way of life
Tonight I slept in a hobo camp workin' out like dog by day
I never got enough to get ahead just enough to make my way
Cold and tired when the evening come all I had to ease my mind
Was thinkin' bout the place I started from and the girl that I left behind
And that's why I'm going back...
There ain't no place that I been at all that I would gonna settle in
And every town that I travel through made me wanna go home again
The green green grass and the rollin' hills seem to keep a callin' me
And that's why I'm going back...
I'm going back...

This was one of my favorite songs on a cassette tape I found as a kid,so I guess you could say it was my first ever Charley pride album and my earliest re collection of hearing him sing..... Such a powerful presence,I wish they would go back and rerelease all the old albums from all the great ones,they sure as hell don't know how yo make it like this anymore.......

A few years ago I saw Charlie and his son sing this song as a duet on TV. I think it was on the Grand ol' Opry. Does anyone have the link to it or can you just tell me how to find it on UTube? Thanks.
my dad sings it to it not as clear as the sound should be but as good as can be
Thanks for posting this :) Dad is really happy to hear this again ^.^
