Smoky Mountain Rain Lyrics - Milsap Ronnie

I thumbed my way from LA back to Knoxville 

I found those bright lights ain't where I belonged 

From a phone booth in the rain I called to tell her 

I've had a change of dreams, I'm comin' home 

But tears filled my eyes when I found out she was gone 

Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin' 

I keep on callin' her name 

Smoky mountain rain, I'll keep on searchin' 

I can't go on hurtin' this way 

She's somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain 

I waved a diesel down outside a cafe 

He said he was goin' as far as Gatlinburg 

I climbed up in the cab all wet and cold and lonely 

I wiped my eyes and told him about her 

"I've got to find her can you make these big wheels burn"? 

Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin' 

I keep on callin' her name 

Smoky mountain rain, I'll keep on searchin' 

I can't go on hurtin' this way 

She's somewhere in the Smoky Mountain rain 

I can't blame her for lettin' go 

A woman needs someone warm to hold 

I feel the rain runnin' down my face 

I'll find her no matter what it takes 

Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin' 

I keep on callin' her name 

Smoky mountain rain, I'll keep on searchin' 

I can't go on hurtin' this way 

Smoky Mountain rain, it keeps on fallin' 

I keep on callin' her name
