Tennessee Amy

Well you packed your bags, moved out of town
Didn't hear a word, didn't hear a sound
By word of mouth a friend told me
Now we call her Tennessee Amy
We call her Tennessee Amy
I hear there's plenty of alcohol
And them Nashville boys don't know how to brawl
Drink 'til whenever you damn well please
Don't you miss me Tennessee Amy?
Don't you miss me Tennessee Amy?

I guess I'll flee to Tennessee
Whatever it takes for me to meet
The girl I want to marry me
Just call her Tennessee Amy

Well I nearly fell and cracked my head
When I got the news that you'd gone for good
I'd walk until I broke my feet
Just to see you Tennessee Amy
Just to see you Tennessee Amy
Well I guess it's all over now
You're gone for good to the land of the south
I'd head on down, but don't you see
I got half this bottle left to drink

You best not wait up for me
My darling Tennessee Amy
Now the Whiskey's got a hold on me
So long, goodbye, Tennessee Amy
