Lyrics

Tennessee Border

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Her eyes were blue, her hair was auburn

Her smile was like an angel fair

She was her daddy's only daughter

On the Tennessee Border

CHORUS

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 mama said: "No, she's my only daughter,"

But we got married on the Tennessee Border.

The roses were bloomin' there on the Border

The moon was shinin' there

Her personality made me want her

On the Tennessee Border.

CHORUS
