Bobby Bare - The Travelin' Bare

Long Way to Tennessee

I'm a long, long way from where I want to be
In the Arizona Prison they've got me

And until they set me free
Oh, oh, me
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee

Oh, my mouth is dry with dust, my throat is raw
How I miss those big green trees in Arkansas

On the way to where I'll be, when they set me free
But it's a long, long way from here to Tennessee

A long, long way from me to the girl that I love so
Will she wait for me?
Oh, Lord, I don't know

I know that I've done wrong, but friends, I've paid the price
Back in Tennessee, I left sweet paradise

But until they set me free
Oh, oh, me
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee
It's a long, long way from here to Tennessee
