"Leaving Tennessee" lyrics

Colorado thought he knew me well
But I hit the ground and it broke the spell
Another stay in Texas didn't get me anywhere
Indiana didn't do me wrong
But I just knew that I didn't belong
Never gave him much of a chance, to be fair

I would always pack my bags and go
Before they could find me out
I would always hit the road
Before they could pin me down
And when I tell you I'm a rolling stone
And that I'm never gonna feel at home
Don't listen to me, you know better, baby
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee

I've had winter's nights on the golden coast
But I got a feeling that it might get cold
Tryna make it through the night so far from you

I would always pack my bags and go
Before they could find me out
I would always hit the road
Before they could pin me down
And when I tell you I'm a rolling stone
And that I'm never gonna feel at home
Don't listen to me, you know better, baby
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee

Never, just been, this right, where I am
Never, just been, this right, where I am

I would always pack my bags and go
Before they could find me out
I would always hit the road
Before they could pin me down
And when I tell you I'm a rolling stone
And that I'm never gonna feel at home
Don't listen to me, you know better, baby
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee

Don't listen to me, you know better, baby
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee
I ain't ever leaving Tennessee
