Rocky Top

Smokey River Boys

Wish that I was.....on old Rocky Top
Down in the Tennessee hills.
Ain't no smoggy-smoke.... on old Rocky Top
Ain't no telephone bills. 

Once I had a...girl on Rocky Top
Half bear...the other half cat,
Wild as a mink, but sweet as...soda-pop
I still dream about that. 

The Chorus

Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good old Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee

Once two strangers...climbed old Rocky Top
Lookin' for a moonshine still
Strangers ain't...come down from Rocky Top
Reckon they never will. 

Corn won't grow at all on Rocky Top
Dirt's too rocky by far
That's why all the folks on Rocky Top
Get their corn from a jar

Repeat the chorus:
Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good old Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee

I've had years of cramped up city life
Trapped like a duck in a pen
All I know is... it's a pity life
Can't be simple again.

Repeat the chorus:
Rocky Top, you'll always be
Home sweet home to me
Good old Rocky Top
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee
Rocky Top, Tennessee!
