It's the liquor in my cup, it's the tag on my truck

And the tag on the buck that I dropped thanksgivin' last season

Tn

It's the letters on my hat, it's the dust on my dash

When I take my last breath, it's the dirt that they gonna bury me in

Tn.

It's still got the jd in a dixie

And the ut on the tv

And that smoky mountain smoke I'm breathin'

But I'd bet my last rocky top dollar that she's in

Co, or ca, or back home in ga

Any place she won't see me in

Now the one thing i's needin'

Is the only damn thing I couldn't keep in tn.

It's that i-40 ride we took all the time

She took that night when I couldn't talk her outta leavin'

Tn

There ain't enough sad songs down in nashville

Ain't enough moonshine up in them hills to give her a good reason

To come on back to me in tn.

It's still got the jd in a dixie

And the ut on the tv

And that smoky mountain smoke I'm breathin'

But I'd bet my last rocky top dollar that she's in

Co, or ca, or back home in ga

Any place she won't see me in

Now the one thing i's needin'

Is the only damn thing I couldn't keep in tn.

It's the number she ain't gonna pick up

I woulda gone with her but I couldn't give up

I couldn't give up.

All the jd in a dixie

Or the ut on the tv

And that smoky mountain smoke I'm breathin'

But I'd bet my last rocky top dollar that she's in

Co, or ca, or back home in ga

Any place she won't see me in

Now the one thing i's needin'

Is the only damn thing I couldn't keep in tn.
