[Dolly Parton - My Tennessee Mountain Home lyrics]
On a summer afternoon
In a straight back chair on two legs
Leaned against the wall
Watch the kids a playing with
June bugs on a string
And chase the glowing fireflies
When evening shadows fall
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
The crickets sing in the fields nearby
Honeysuckle vine clings to the
Fence along the lane
Their fragrance makes the summer
Wind so sweet and on a distant hilltop
An eagle spreads it's wings
An a songbird on a fence post sings a melody
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields nearby
Walking home from church on a Sunday
With the one ya' love
Just laughing, talking, making future plans
And when the folks ain't looking
You might steal a kiss or two
Sitting in the porch swing, holding hands
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields nearby
