Rocky Top


Wish that I was on ol' Rocky Top down in the Tennessee hills.
Ain't no smokey smoke on Rocky Top ain't no telephone bills.

Once I had a girl on Rocky Top half bear other half cat.
Wild as a mink and sweet as soda pop I still dream about that.

Rocky Top you'll always be home sweet home to me.
Good ol' Rocky Top. Rocky Top Tennessee, Rocky Top Tennessee.

Once two strangers climbed ol' Rocky Top lookin' for a moonshine still.
Strangers ain't come down from Rocky Top, reckon 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 jar.

Rocky Top you'll always be home sweet home to me.
Good ol' Rocky Top. Rocky Top Tennessee.

I've had years of crumped up city-life trapped like a dog in a pan.
All I know that it's a pity-life can't be simple again.

Rocky Top you'll always be home sweet home to me.
Good ol' Rocky Top. Rocky Top Tennessee.
