Tennessee
I kissed you 'cause I've never been an angelI learned to say hosannas on my kneesBut they threw me out of Sunday school when I was nineAnd the sisters said I did just as I pleasedEven so I try to be a good girlIt's only what I want that makes me weakI had no desire to be a child of sinThen you went and pressed your whiskers to my cheekFa la la laFa la la leeNow let me go, my honey ohBack to TennesseeIt's beef steak when I'm workingWhiskey when I'm drySweet heaven when I dieNow I've tried drinking rye and gamblin'Dancing with damnation is a ballBut of all the little ways I've found to hurt myselfWell you might be my favorite one of allFa la la laFa la la leeNow let me go, my honey ohLetras de cancionesBack to TennesseeIt's beef steak when I'm workingWhiskey when I'm drySweet heaven when I dieWhy can't I go and live the life of riley?Why can't I go back home to apple pie?'Cause your affront to my virtue was a touch too muchBut you left a little twinkle in my eyeFa la la laFa la la leeNow let me go, my honey ohBack to TennesseeIt's beef steak when I'm workingWhiskey when I'm drySweet heaven when I dieNow some will come confessing of transgressionsSome will come confessing of their loveYou were there strumming on your gay guitarYou were trying to tell me something with your thumbFa la la laFa la la leeNow let me go, my honey ohBack to TennesseeIt's beef steak when I'm workingWhiskey when I'm drySweet heaven when I dieIt's beef steak when I'm workingWhiskey when I'm drySweet heaven when I die From Letras Mania
