Merle Haggard - Working In Tennessee lyrics

Well, I went down South to give 'em a hand Wound up workin' at Opryland Look at me, workin' at Tennessee Got no money, got a lot of flies Down here workin' with the rest of the guys Look at me, workin' at Tennessee Well I went down lookin' for Grandpa Jones Wound up diggin', diggin' up bones Look at me, workin' at Tennessee I went down lookin' to be a star Wound up hockin' my ol' guitar Look at me, workin' at Tennessee Well, the water came in, the water went out Saw the Hall of Fame floatin' about Look at me, workin' at Tennessee
