Go Back to Tennessee
Ken Mattox/Steve Mattox
She woke up Sunday morning to the ringing of the phone
Left me barely breathing in the bedroom all alone
Poured her morning coffee, slipped off her chiffon robe
I tried not to notice as she packed her clothes to go
Go back to Tennessee, don’t come home or back to me
Out by the break of dawn, I tried to stop her but she was gone
Go back to Tennessee; if she does, you won’t find me
I’ll be drinking my heart away, working through another day
Too many times I told her, as I tried to hide my lies
The keys are on the table when she makes up her mind
I didn’t feel the distance or the pain when hearts collide
I never thought there’d come a day when she would say goodbye
Go back to Tennessee, don’t come home or back to me
Out by the break of dawn, I tried to stop her but she was gone
Go back to Tennessee, if she does, you won’t find me
I’ll be drinking my heart away, working through another day
I watched her auburn hair dancing in the morning air
Maybe I could change my ways, baby, please, please don’t leave me this way
There’s and empty bottle I left outside the door,
One for every moment I won’t see her anymore
She’s going back to Tennessee, don’t come home or back to me
Out by the break of dawn, I tried to stop her but she was gone
Go back to Tennessee, if she does, you won’t find me
I’ll be drinking my heart away, working through another day
Go back to Tennessee, don’t come home or back to me
Out by the break of dawn, I tried to stop her but she was gone
Go back to Tennessee, if she does, you won’t find me
I’ll be drinking my heart away, working through another day
