The grass is just a little bit greener
The whiskey's a little bit sweeter
The musics' pouring out onto the street
If the [?] is flowing
And the guitar shop is open
It sounds just like a place I wanna be
Well I can sure get down in Kentucky
And New York City's been a friend of me
But if there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like my sweet Tennessee
In the time that you could use it [?]
You can always hear some music
It ain't all country, we got rock n' roll
Don't you be mistaken
It's a trip that's worth takin'
Music City's a place I call home
I could drift away to Carolina
I'd love to feel that California free
But if there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like my sweet Tennessee
I still dig the roots down in the Delta
And in Muscle Shoals where that river sings
But if there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like Nashville, Tennessee
If there's one thing I know
No matter where I go
There ain't no place like my sweet Tennessee
