Tennessee Lyrics - Singles - Drew Holcomb And The Neighbors

When I was a boy 

I didn't know nothing 

I didn't have a care in the world 

I had innocence and ignorance 

Of things I wish I still did not know 

But no matter how far these songs take me 

If my dreams come true 

Or the heartaches break me 

No matter where I make my bed 

I long for you 

Tennessee, Tennessee 

I was born here and raised here 

And I'll make my grave here 

It's home, Tennessee 

We've all got a story frozen in time 

People and places of living and dying 

Heartbeats and breathing 

Just trying to make sense of it all 

I am the second-born of my mother and father 

These lion-hearted men 

She's a Jesus-loving woman 

And no matter how far I roam 

I always belong 

To Tennessee, Tennessee 

I was born here and raised here 

And I'll make my grave here 

It's home, Tennessee 

It's not just geography, it's a part of me 

The air I breathe 

And we've got a history 

And the blood runs through 

Tennessee, Tennessee 

Tennessee, Tennessee 

I was born here and raised here 

And I'll make my grave here 

It's home, Tennessee
