Rocky Top

Wish that i was on ole rocky top
down in the tennessee hills.
Ain't no smoggy smoke up on rocky top.
Ain't no telephone bill.
Once i had a girl on ole rocky top
Half bear, the other half 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 ole rocky top
lookin for a moonshine still
Stranger ain't come down from ole rocky top
reckon they never will
Corn don't grow at all down on rocky top
Ground 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
Rocky top you'll always be home sweet home to me
GOod ole Rocky Top, Rocky Top Tennessee
Rocky Top TEnnessee eeeee eeeeee
