My Tennessee Mountain Home Lyrics
My Tennessee Mountain Home - Maria Muldaur
Sittin' on the front porch on a summer afternoon
In a straight back chair on two legs leans against the wall
Watch the kids a playin' with June bugs on a string
And chase the glowin' fireflies when evenin' shadows fall
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
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
And 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 near by
Walkin' home from church on a Sunday
With the one you love
Just laughin' talkin' making future plans
And when the folks ain't lookin'
You might steal a kiss or two
Just sittin' in the porch swing holdin' 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 near by
In my Tennessee mountain home
Life is as peaceful as a baby's sigh
In my Tennessee mountain home
Crickets sing in the fields near by
In my Tennessee mountain home
