Tennessee Border

Hank Locklin · Once Over Lightly [1965]

(Jimmy Work)



Her eyes were brown her hair was auburn

Her smile was like an angel dear

She was her daddy's only daughter

On the Tennessee border.



One night I took a ride just across the line

I picked her up in a pickup truck

And she broke this heart of mine

Her mother said no she's my only daughter

But we got married on the Tennesse border.



One night I took a ride just across the line

And she broke this heart of mine

Her mother said no she's my only daughter

But we got married on the Tennesse border...
