Knoxville Girl
The fog rolls in the morning
I can hardly find my way
Home to where the heart is
The words can't begin to say
Enough about the gentle way
You always take me in
The long and narrow one way road's
Got to take me home again
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
'Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
I met a little girl in Knoxville town
A town you all know well
Feelin' good like I should
Into her love I fell
The night was long she lay there by my side
Held me close within her arms
And kept me satisfied
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
So on it goes and no one knows
Where heartache ever ends
Above all that it'll get
Exactly what it lends
The time has come to steal my love from me
In this pain I will remain
And sing this misery
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
I can hardly find my way
Home to where the heart is
The words can't begin to say
Enough about the gentle way
You always take me in
The long and narrow one way road's
Got to take me home again
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
'Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
I met a little girl in Knoxville town
A town you all know well
Feelin' good like I should
Into her love I fell
The night was long she lay there by my side
Held me close within her arms
And kept me satisfied
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
So on it goes and no one knows
Where heartache ever ends
Above all that it'll get
Exactly what it lends
The time has come to steal my love from me
In this pain I will remain
And sing this misery
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
With that dark and rovin' eye
Go down, go down
To Knoxville girl
Cause I know
You'll never be my bride
