Tom T. Hall - Watertown Tennessee lyrics
[Tom T. Hall - Watertown Tennessee lyrics]
Ain't too much but it's all I got
Bluebirds singing in the evergreen
Trees in Watertown Tennessee
Hey Watertown Tennessee
People in Watertown will never
Do die when they
Reach a hundred they can truly fly
Sail into heaven on a southerly
Breeze in Watertown Tennessee
Hey Watertown Tennessee
I had me an outhouse down by the
Creek prettiest outhouse you ever did see
Flood came along now I'm up
The creek in Watertown Tennessee
Hey Watertown Tennessee
Well a big old redhawk
Circling around looking for
A chicken down here on the ground
Sometimes he gets as high as
Me in Watertown Tennessee
Hey Watertown Tennessee
When I get to heaven if I ever do die I'm
A gonna cut me a hole in the sky
Sittin' in a mansion and all
I'll see is Watertown Tennessee
Hey Watertown Tennessee
Now if you want to be famous
And you want to be rich
People in Watertown taught me a trick
I'm gonna tell it if I stay around long
Whups that's the end of this song
Called Watertown Tennessee
