New York City ain't no kind of place

For a country girl with a friendly face

I wish I had my old fishing pole

Eating green apples and waiting for the fish to bite
Life ain't as simple as it used to be
F
Since the big apple took a bite out of me
C G7 F C
And Lord I'm so Tennessee homesick that I could die
F C
But I ain't been home in I don't know when

If I had it all to do over again
G7 F C
Tonight I'd sleep in my old feather bed
F C
What I wouldn't give for a little bitty taste
F C
Of Mama's homemade chocolate cake
G7 F C
Tennessee homesick blues running through my head
Mama you can fluff my feather bed
F
Just as soon as I can I'm gonna head
C G7 F C
Back to the Tennessee hills and it better be soon
Daddy you can load the rifles up

We're gonna load them dogs on the pickup truck
C G7 F C
And head off to Calhoun County and catch us a coon
F C
But I ain't been home in I don't know when
F C
If I had it all to do over again

Tonight I'd sleep in my old feather bed

Eating grits and gravy and country ham

Good Lord have mercy on a country girl
