King Of The Cannon County Hills Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

Folks tell me I should go to the city and go to school and learn a lot of things 

But I already know what makes the fox fire glow 

And just what time the robbin redbreast sings 

Well I know that the possum likes persimmons 

And I know that fishes breathe out through their gills 

So while I can kill a squirell and court the sweetest girl 

I'm the king of the Cannon County hills 

Let the senor have his senorita let the hippy have his LSD and thrills 

But when I'm with my darling in the mountains 

I'm the king of the Cannon County hills 

 

Well the things I know you cannot learn in college 

And I don't need cash cause I ain't got no bills 

I can tell you in a flash just how long to cook your mash 

And the best come from the Cannon County hills 

Let the senor have his senorita... 

[ fiddle - el.banjo ] 

Now I'm not saying don't go to college cause knowledge sure will cure a lot of ills 

But I know this little song is a gettin' away too long 

Come and see me in the Cannon County hills 

Let the senor have his senorita... 

I'm the king of the Cannon County hills
