I was born in the mountains
of East Tennessee
my first hero
wore number sixteen
When I was a kid
I was all orange and white
I saw them run through the T
on a Saturday night
Yea we were hillbillys
and lived like Hicks
but i still get chills
when I hear "give him 6"
Touchdown big orange
go for it on 4th
Neyland gets real loud
love to hear that sound
of Rocky Top from the band
V.O.L.S. in the stands
lord and I just cant deny
that Im a Vol for Life
Now this life it
aint for the faint of heart
and Living on Rocky Top
it gets real hard
sometimes it feels
just like ninety eight
other times well
it god damn aint
But Ill love smokey
till the day i die
even if them vols
make me breakdown and cry
Touchdown big orange
go for it on 4th
Neyland gets real loud
love to hear that sound
of Rocky Top from the band
V.O.L.S. in the stands
lord and I just cant deny
that Im a Vol for Life
We dont give a damn
about the state of Alabama
your red salt water
or that yellow hammer
still a gator hater
you can keep that chomp
i love some Tom Petty
even though hes from the swamp
Them Georgia boys well
they aint no count
only dog we love
is a blue tick hound
Touchdown big orange
go for it on 4th
Neyland gets real loud
love to hear that sound
of Rocky Top from the band
V.O.L.S. in the stands
lord and I just cant deny
that Im a Vol for Life
Rocky Top youll
always be
home sweet home to me
good ol Rocky Top
