My dear, Tennessee
Well, you're just too big for me
Your neon lights lay heavy on my sky
Oh what have you done
What great city you've become
To let the minstrels sing before they die
Say a prayer for me
All you saints of Galilee
Cause I don't know who I will be tomorrow
Once the night has come
I can drink until the sun
Ruins me, the way it always does
Oh Tennessee, Tennessee
Won't you pray for me
You've taken all, all I had to give
When all the love is gone
I guess it's time for getting on
But you'll always have the center of my heart
Houses made of cards
And smiles filled of scars
Are all I hear, when you whisper name
Lines and promises
And empty kisses
All your pretty words, they all just sound the same
Oh Tennessee, Tennessee
Won't you pray for me
You've taken all, all I had to give
When all the love is gone
I guess it's time for getting on
But you'll always have the center of my heart
Oh Tennessee, Tennessee
Won't you pray for me
Cause you've always had the center of my heart
