Tennessee - Carl Perkins

　　Now there are folks who like to brag about where they came from

　　But when they start that stuff I let 'em be

　　But it makes me feel like I wanna brag some

　　To know that I come from the state of Tennessee

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it up in Nashville everyday

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it in that old Hillbilly way

　　Mister Red Foley came from Kentucky

　　Now Ernest Tubb down in Texas don't you see

　　But if all you folks out there can remember

　　Mister Eddy Arnold came from Tennessee

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it up in Nashville everyday

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it in that old hillbilly way

　　They make bombs they say that can blow up our world dear

　　Well a country boy like me I will agree

　　But if all you folks out there will remember

　　They made the first atomic bomb in Tennessee

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it up in Nashville everyday

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it in that old hillbilly way

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it up in Nashville everyday

　　Let's give old Tennessee credit for music

　　As they play it in that old hillbilly way
