Текст песни: Tennessee Mountain Girl + перевод

Well I was taking my time, shuffling a line

I had to get back on the road

Same old features, night time creatures

Make a boy feel pretty old

Well, drifting here and there without a worry or a care

I wonder when my trail was coming to an end

Then I saw the one in the Appalchian sun

Riding six white horses round the bend

And she said my name with a country twang

And my heart fell on the floor

All my life, I’ve been a-waiting

For a Tennassee Mountain girl

She said she was a teacher and her daddy was a preacher

And I can testify that she was blessed

And I knew she was a winner when she served me dinner

I was praying she might give me a kiss

Well I know that I’m a sinner but she was no beginner

When she took me from the bar

She had me singing good ole rocky top

Underneath the Knoxville stars

Well she was a treasure and I’m glad I met her

But she left me wanting more

All my life, I’ve been a-waiting

For a Tennassee Mountain Girl

And when I was in Denver I certainly remember

How the women there treated me kind

But I miss the thrills of a holler and the hills

And the girl with the smoky mountain eyes

And I tried Atlanta, and Bozeman Montana

Seattle, Santa Fe and Albany

But nothing compares with the sweet southern fare

Of the little girl I met in Tennessee

And I remember when she said my name with a country twang

I left my heart there on the floor

All my life I’ve been a-waiting

For a Tennassee Mountain Girl

All my life I’ve been a-waiting

For a Tennassee Mountain Girl
