You can`t keep me here in Tennessee - Yellow Moon

By the time we left kentucky

All that was on my mind

Was the way I've spent my trouble like a dime

We got back to nashville things

Were still the same

But my thought went back to texas

And I hate to ease the pain

'Cause you fall like a tree

When you're cut down

And you been too long hacking away at me

It's a long long road I'm taking back to texas

'Cause you can't keep me here in tennessee

Well in all my looking at you

It's funny all the things

I've never seen lord

'Cause the sun don't shine beside you

Least wise it ain't never shone on me

Shone on me

'Cause you fall like a tree

When you're cut down

And you been too long hacking away at me

It's a long long road I'm taking back to texas

'Cause you can't keep me here in tennessee

Well my mind's been in a dungeon

A prison in a world of make believe make believe

And I'm begging for your pardon

Served my time so now

I'll take my leave take my leave

'Cause you fall like a tree

When you're cut down

And you been too long hacking away at me

It's a long long road I'm taking back to texas

'Cause you can't keep me here in tennessee

Yes you fall like a tree

When you're cut down

You been too long hacking away at me

It's a long long road I'm taking back to texas

'Cause you can't keep me here in tennessee
