Leavin Tennessee Lyrics - Keen Robert Earl

The sun is settin 

On our time living here 

Youve lost the will 

Ive lost the heart 

We should be leavin 

While the coast is still clear 

Cause we wont make it after dawn 

We can cash in our chips 

And pack up the car 

Lock up the door 

And hide the key 

The only two things that mean anything to me 

Are loving you 

And leaving Tennessee 

Silver eagles fly down streets paved with gold 

Stars keep shining through the dawn 

Anything you can dream of to hold 

You can have here for a song 

But theres a song tonight 

Thats riding the wind 

I'm the words 

And youre the melody 

The only two things that mean anything to me 

Are loving you 

And leaving Tennessee 

Its just the two of us 

All out on our own 

Thats the way it ought to be 

The only two things that mean anything to me 

Are loving you 

And leaving tennessee 

We can call up all our friends on the phone 

Tell them that someday well return 

First, we have to start to make a new home 

We have one last bridge to burn 

Lay your head down and well drive 

Through the night 

And in the morning light youre gonna see 

The only things that mean anything to me 

Are loving you 

And leaving Tennessee 

The only things that mean anything to me 

Are loving you 

And leaving Tennessee
