Tennessee Sunshine

Well just before the sun rise in the morning
I'll be on the highway headed home
Home is just a little bit east of Nashville
Where the Tennessee River winds along

Lord I'm gonna hear the roosters crow in Sourwood Mountains
I got that homesick feeling in my bones
I'd give these traveler blues for some Tennessee sunshine
Tennessee sunshine and you loving me

I worked in the Texas sand a pickin' cotton
And I tried rodeo in last fall
And I worked in factory in Deoria Illinois
And traveled Canada east to Montreal

Lord I wanna hear the roosters crow...

Wonder if the folks back home will know me
Since they saw me I've lost thirty pounds
I sure have missed my mama's country cooking
And the Sunday singing and dinner on the ground

Lord I wanna hear the roosters crow...
Tennessee sunshine (loving me) Tennessee sunshine (loving me)
Tennessee sunshine (loving me) Tennessee sunshine (loving me)
