Rocky Top

(Boudleaux Bryant - Felice Bryant)



Wish that I was on old Rocky Top down in the Tennessee hills

Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top ain't no telephone bills

Once I had a man on Rocky Top part bear the other part cat

Wild as a mink but sweet as soda pop I still dream about that.



Rocky Top you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ole Rocky Top

Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.



Once two strangers climbed old Rocky Top lookin' for a moonshine still

Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top reckon they never will

Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top dirt's too rocky by far

That's why all the folks on Rocky Top get their corn from a jar.



Rocky Top you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ole Rocky Top

Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.

I've had years of cramped up city life

Trapped like a duck in a pen

All I know is it's a pity life

Can't be simple again.



Rocky Top you'll always be

Home sweet home to me

Good ole Rocky Top

Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.



Rocky Top Tennessee...
