Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee I know she's waiting there for me Someday I'll settle down in that little country town With that little girl of mine in Tennessee Oh, a long long time ago when I left my home to roam Down in the hills of Tennessee Was the sweetest little girl that was ever in this world Down in the hills of Tennessee Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee I know she's waiting there for me Someday I'll settle down in that little country town With that little girl of mine in Tennessee Oh, she begged me not to go,?You'll be sorry, dear, I know? For the way that you've were treating me So I rambled all around and nothing could be found
To take the place of her in Tennessee Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee I know she's waiting there for me Someday I'll settle down in that little country town With that little girl of mine in Tennessee Oh, someday I'll wander back to that little cabin shack Little girl that's waiting there for me I can see her smiling face waiting for me at the gate Oh, the little girl of mine in Tennessee Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee I know she's waiting there for me Someday I'll settle down in that little country town With that little girl of mine in Tennessee
