Leavin Tennessee lyrics

The sun is settin`

On our time living here

You`ve lost the will

I`ve lost the heart

We should be leavin`

While the coast is still clear

Cause we won`t make it after dawn

We can cash in our chips

And pack up the car

Lock up the door

And hide the key



The only two things that mean anything to me

Are loving you

And leaving Tennessee



Silver eagles fly down streets paved with gold

Stars keep shining through the dawn

Anything you can dream of to hold

You can have here for a song

But there`s a song tonight

That`s riding the wind

I`m the words

And you`re the melody



The only two things that mean anything to me

Are loving you

And leaving Tennessee



It`s just the two of us

All out on our own

That`s the way it ought to be



The only two things that mean anything to me

Are loving you

And leaving tennessee



We can call up all our friends on the phone

Tell them that someday we`ll return

First, we have to start to make a new home

We have one last bridge to burn

Lay your head down and we`ll drive

Through the night

And in the morning light you`re gonna see



The only things that mean anything to me

Are loving you

And leaving Tennessee



The only things that mean anything to me

Are loving you

And leaving Tennessee
