Rocky Top Lyrics
by AJ Cannon
I lost all my teeth in Rocky Top
Early on in my life.
I'm a man who loves my family
So my sister's my wife.
I get liquored up on Rocky Top
'Fore I lay me to bed.
I wake up to chicken collars
And bovines lickin' my head.
Rocky Top..
You ought to see our unforked family tree!
Good ole Rocky Top!
Don't know our A B C's...
Don't know our A B C's...
Revenuers come to Rocky Top
Trying to locate our still.
Told my paw I wouldn't shoot 'em
But hey, they'd make a good meal.
All my years I spend on mountain tops
In the heat of the South.
Better not come up to see us
If you've got a really purty mouth!
Rocky Top..
You ought to see our unforked family tree!
Good ole Rocky Top!
Don't know our A B C's...
Don't know our A B C's...
Repeat
Watch them Volunteers on Rocky Top
Hope they win all the time!
We like wearin' orange camouflage
Come straight from the duck blind.
Rocky Top..
You ought to see our unforked family tree!
Good ole Rocky Top!
Don't know our A B C's...
Don't know our A B C's...
And hey, here are the real lyrics! I think they speak for themselves! ;-)
Rocky Top
by Felice and Boudeleaux Bryant
from Dirt Silver and Gold
Wish that I was on Ole Rocky Top,
Down in the Tennessee Hills.
Ain't no smoggy smoke on Rocky Top,
Ain't no telephone bills.
Once there was a girl on Rocky Top,
Half bear the other half cat.
Wild as a mink, 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 on Rocky Top,
Lookin' for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come back from Rocky Top,
Guess 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.
Now I've had years of cramped up city life,
Trapped like a duck in a pen.
Now 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, Rocky Top Tennessee.
Yeah Rocky Top Tennesee eee eee eee.
