If I've had my way I'd leave here today I'd leave in a hurry
I'd find me a place where I could stay and not have to worry
I'd find me a spot on some mountain top with no one around me
With valleys and streams and birds in the trees and lakes that surround me
A place I could use a place I could lose these Tennessee blues
A place to forget all my regrets and keep just a right time
A place I could sleep with nothing but peace and feel free an all time
A place I could use a place I could lose these Tennessee blues
A place I could lose these Tennessee blues
