tennessee woman

i'm gonna tell you 'bout the real deal

i'm gonna tell you what i really like

me and my gal're havin' the time of our life

yeah

it's so pure

it's so raw when we hold tight

crazy in the moonshine

daytime's dynamite

she took me by storm in a raging sea

on a roller coaster ride

i am falling

i'm falling down

but i know i'll never hit the ground

she will catch me

she will save me

hey that's what it's all about

no more no less

day by day

on and on

all the way and back

here we go again

i'm feeling right with her by my side

strong as a lion

easy like a child

i am proud of what i have - no regrets for my past

i'll work on a hell of a future

but i know without her it's just half the way and i gotta say

i was born for a reason

and i'll die for just the same

i belong to my tennessee woman

without her

i'd be half a man

and when she's singin' with her sweet voice to me

singing that southern sound

kickin' the beat with her boots

i'm rhythm bound

and i play my guitar all night and she tells me

boy - you play alright

you and me sipping of a bottle of jd

we're spinning around

getting real dizzy

we're spinning around

'til we both fall and hit the ground

but we don't care

cause we don't care

well that's my girl

no more no less

for my exes from texas - no regrets

here i go now

i'm happy as can be

'cause i got a great girl from tennessee

now i'm proud of what i have

i'm not stuck in the past

i'll work on my hell of a future

but i know without you it's just half the way and i gotta say

i was born for a reason

and i'll die for just the same

i belong to my tennessee woman

without her

i'd be half a man

i got a girl from tennessee

and i sure like what i see

she's one of my kind

we're so close in mind

she's the lock and i'm the key

well i'm a full-blooded mississippi dude

met a lot of nice girls in the neighborhood

but the best place to be is anywhere for me

with my girl from tennessee

i was born for a reason

and i'll die for just the same

i belong to my tennessee woman

without her

i'd be half a man

i was born for a reason

and i'll die for just the same

i belong to my tennessee woman

without her

i'd be half a man
