I'm Going Home To Tennessee

I’ve stuck it out for 30 years in this old factory town
But today's the day that I retire and I'll be southern bound
There's a poor man's farm where I was born that's home sweet home to me
There's s a weathered shack on a mountain top
Way down in Tennessee

And I'm going to go where the redbuds grow
The tall pines hum and the Tennessee flows
The banjo's ring and the bluebirds sing
I'm going home to Tennessee
I'm going home to Tennessee

Now working on this assembly line was never really me
The old home place was always there in my memory
It's been 30 years of sweat and tears In this old northern state
How many times have I walked through that old factory gate

And I'm going to go where the redbuds grow
The tall pines hum and the Tennessee flows
The banjo's ring and the bluebirds sing
I'm going home to Tennessee
I'm going home to Tennessee

And I'm going to go where the redbuds grow
The tall pines hum and the Tennessee flows
The banjo's ring and the bluebirds sing
I'm going home to Tennessee
I'm going home to Tennessee
